General
The Company, Hawthorn Bancshares,
Inc., is a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. was
incorporated under the laws of the State of Missouri on October 23, 1992 as Exchange National Bancshares, Inc. and changed its
name to Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. in August 2007. The Company owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Union State
Bancshares, Inc., which in turn owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Hawthorn Bank. The Company and Union State
Bancshares each received approval from the Federal Reserve and elected to become a financial holding company on October 21, 2001.
The Company acquired Hawthorn
Bank and its constituent predecessor banks, as well as Union State Bancshares, in a series of transactions that are summarized
as follows:
| · | On April 7, 1993 the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of The Exchange
National Bank of Jefferson City, a national banking association, pursuant to a corporate reorganization involving an exchange of
shares; |
| · | On November 3, 1997, the Company acquired Union State Bancshares, Inc., and Union's wholly-owned
subsidiary, Union State Bank and Trust of Clinton; |
| · | On January 3, 2000, the Company acquired Osage Valley Bank; |
| · | Following the May 4, 2000 acquisition of Citizens State Bank of Calhoun by Union State Bank, Citizens
State Bank merged into Union State Bank to form Citizens Union State Bank & Trust; |
| · | On June 16, 2000, the Company acquired City National Savings Bank, FSB, which was then merged into
Exchange National Bank; and |
| · | On May 2, 2005, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Bank 10,
a Missouri state bank. |
On December 1, 2006, the
Company announced its development of a strategic plan in which, among other things, Exchange National Bank, Citizens Union State
Bank, Osage Valley Bank and Bank 10 would be consolidated into a single bank under a Missouri state trust charter. This consolidation
was completed in October 2007, and the subsidiary bank is now known as Hawthorn Bank.
Except as otherwise provided herein, references
herein to the "Company" or "Hawthorn" include Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries,
and references herein to the "Bank" refers to Hawthorn Bank and its constituent predecessors.
Description of Business
Company. The Company
is a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act that has elected to become a financial holding company.
The Company's activities currently are limited to ownership, indirectly through its subsidiary (Union State Bancshares, Inc.),
of the outstanding capital stock of Hawthorn Bank. In addition to ownership of its subsidiaries, the Company may seek expansion
through acquisition and may engage in those activities (such as investments in banks or operations that are financial in nature)
in which it is permitted to engage under applicable law. It is not currently anticipated that the Company will engage in any business
other than that directly related to its ownership of its banking subsidiary or other financial institutions.
Union. Union State
Bancshares, Inc. is a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act that has elected to become a financial
holding company. Union's activities currently are limited to ownership of the outstanding capital stock of Hawthorn Bank. It is
not currently anticipated that Union will engage in any business other than that directly related to its ownership of Hawthorn
Bank.
Hawthorn Bank. Hawthorn
Bank was founded in 1932 as a Missouri bank and converted to a Missouri trust company on August 16, 1989. However, its predecessors
trace their lineage back to the founding of Exchange National Bank in 1865. Hawthorn Bank has 24 banking offices, including its
principal office at 132 East High Street in Jefferson City's central business district. See "Item 2. Properties".
Hawthorn Bank is a full
service bank conducting a general banking and trust business, offering its customers checking and savings accounts, internet banking,
debit cards, certificates of deposit, trust services, brokerage services, safety deposit boxes and a wide range of lending services,
including commercial and industrial loans, single payment personal loans, installment loans and commercial and residential real
estate loans.
Hawthorn Bank's deposit
accounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") to the extent provided by law. Hawthorn
Bank's operations are supervised and regulated by the FDIC and the Missouri Division of Finance. Periodic examinations of Hawthorn
Bank are conducted by representatives of the FDIC and the Missouri Division of Finance. Such regulations, supervision and examinations
are principally for the benefit of depositors, rather than for the benefit of the holders of Hawthorn Bank's common stock. See
"Regulation Applicable to Bank Holding Companies" and "Regulation Applicable to the Bank".
Hawthorn Real Estate.
Hawthorn Real Estate, LLC, a non-bank subsidiary of the Company, was formed in December 2008 in order to purchase and hold various
nonperforming assets of Hawthorn Bank. The purpose for holding these nonperforming assets in Hawthorn Real Estate is to allow for
the orderly disposition of these assets and strengthen Hawthorn Bank's financial position.
Real Estate Holdings
of Missouri, LLC. Real Estate Holdings of Missouri, LLC, a non-bank subsidiary of the Company, was formed in March 2010 in
order to purchase from Hawthorn Bank and hold parcels of foreclosed real property located in and around Kansas City, Missouri.
The purpose for acquiring this foreclosed real estate in Real Estate Holdings of Missouri, LLC is to allow for the orderly, and
potentially more expeditious, disposition of these assets and strengthen Hawthorn Bank's financial position.
Employees
As of December 31, 2014,
Hawthorn and its subsidiaries had approximately 308 full-time and 50 part-time employees. None of its employees is presently represented
by any union or collective bargaining group, and the Company considers its employee relations to be satisfactory.
Competition
Bank holding companies
and their subsidiaries and affiliates encounter intense competition from nonbanking as well as banking sources in all of their
activities. The Bank's competitors include other commercial banks, thrifts, savings banks, credit unions, and money market mutual
funds. Thrifts and credit unions now have the authority to offer checking accounts and to make corporate and agricultural loans
and were granted expanded investment authority by recent federal regulations. In addition, large national and multinational corporations
have in recent years become increasingly visible in offering a broad range of financial services to all types of commercial and
consumer customers. In the Bank's service areas, new competitors, as well as the expanding operations of existing competitors,
have had, and are expected to continue to have, an adverse impact on the Bank's market share of deposits and loans in such service
areas.
The Bank experiences substantial
competition for deposits and loans within both its primary service areas of Jefferson City, Columbia, Clinton, Lee's Summit, Warsaw,
Springfield, and Branson, Missouri and its secondary service area of the nearby communities in Cole, Boone, Henry, Cass, Benton,
and Greene counties of Missouri. Hawthorn Bank's principal competition for deposits and loans comes from other banks within its
primary service areas and, to an increasing extent, other banks in nearby communities. Based on publicly available information,
management believes that Hawthorn Bank is the third largest (in terms of deposits) of the thirteen banks within Cole county, the
twelfth largest
(in terms of deposits) of
thirty banks within Boone county, the largest (in terms of deposits) of the eight banks within Henry county, the fourth largest
(in terms of deposits) of the seventeen banks within Cass county, and the second largest (in terms of deposits) of the five banks
within Benton county. The main competition for Hawthorn Bank's trust services is from other commercial banks, including those of
the Kansas City metropolitan area.
Regulation Applicable to Bank Holding Companies
General. As
a registered bank holding company and a financial holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act (the "BHC Act")
and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the "GLB Act"), Hawthorn is subject to supervision and examination by the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System (the "FRB"). The FRB has authority to issue cease and desist orders against bank holding
companies if it determines that their actions represent unsafe and unsound practices or violations of law. In addition, the FRB
is empowered to impose civil money penalties for violations of banking statutes and regulations. Regulation by the FRB is intended
to protect depositors of the Bank, not the shareholders of Hawthorn. Hawthorn also is subject to a number of restrictions and
requirements imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 relating to internal controls over financial reporting, disclosure controls
and procedures, loans to directors or executive officers of the Hawthorn and its subsidiaries, the preparation and certification
of the Hawthorn's consolidated financial statements, the duties of Hawthorn's audit committee, relations with and functions performed
by Hawthorn's independent auditors, and various accounting and corporate governance matters.
Limitation on Activities.
The activities of bank holding companies are generally limited to the business of banking, managing or controlling banks,
and other activities that the FRB has determined to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be
a proper incident thereto. In addition, under the GLB Act, a bank holding company, all of whose controlled depository institutions
are "well capitalized" and "well managed" (as defined in federal banking regulations) with "satisfactory"
Community Reinvestment Act ratings, may declare itself to be a "financial holding company" and engage in a broader range
of activities. As noted above, Hawthorn is registered as a financial holding company.
A financial holding company
may affiliate with securities firms and insurance companies and engage in other activities that are financial in nature or incidental
or complementary to activities that are financial in nature. "Financial in nature" activities include:
| · | securities underwriting, dealing and market making; |
| · | sponsoring mutual funds and investment companies; |
| · | insurance underwriting and insurance agency activities; |
| · | activities that the FRB determines to be financial in nature or incidental to a financial activity
or which is complementary to a financial activity and does not pose a safety and soundness risk. |
A financial holding company
that desires to engage in activities that are financial in nature or incidental to a financial activity but not previously authorized
by the FRB must obtain approval from the FRB before engaging in such activity. Also, a financial holding company may seek FRB approval
to engage in an activity that is complementary to a financial activity, if it shows, among other things, that the activity does
not pose a substantial risk to the safety and soundness of its insured depository institutions or the financial system.
A financial holding company
generally may acquire a company (other than a bank holding company, bank or savings association) engaged in activities that are
financial in nature or incidental to activities that are financial in nature without prior approval from the FRB. Prior FRB approval
is required, however, before the financial holding company may acquire control of more than 5% of the voting shares or substantially
all of the assets of a bank holding company, bank or savings association. In addition, under the FRB's merchant banking regulations,
a financial holding company is authorized to invest in companies that engage in activities that are not financial in nature, as
long as the financial holding company makes its investment with the intention of limiting the duration of the investment, does
not manage the company on a day-to-day basis, and the company does not cross-market its products or services with any of the financial
holding company's controlled depository institutions.
If any subsidiary bank
of a financial holding company ceases to be "well-capitalized" or "well-managed" and fails to correct its condition
within the time period that the FRB specifies, the FRB has authority to order the financial holding company to divest its subsidiary
banks. Alternatively, the financial holding company may elect to limit its activities and the activities of its subsidiaries to
those permissible for a bank holding company that is not a financial holding company. If any subsidiary bank of a financial holding
company receives a rating under the Community Reinvestment Act (the "CRA") of less than "satisfactory", then
the financial holding company is prohibited from engaging in new activities or acquiring companies other than bank holding companies,
banks or savings associations until the rating is raised to "satisfactory" or better.
Limitation on Acquisitions.
The BHC Act requires a bank holding company to obtain prior approval of the FRB before:
| · | taking any action that causes a bank to become a controlled subsidiary of the bank holding company; |
| · | acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of voting shares of any bank or bank holding
company, if the acquisition results in the acquiring bank holding company having control of more than 5% of the outstanding shares
of any class of voting securities of such bank or bank holding company, and such bank or bank holding company is not majority-owned
by the acquiring bank holding company prior to the acquisition; |
| · | acquiring substantially all of the assets of a bank; or |
| · | merging or consolidating with another bank holding company. |
Regulatory Capital
Requirements. The FRB has issued risk-based and leverage capital guidelines applicable to United States banking organizations.
If a bank holding company's capital falls below minimum required levels, then the bank holding company must implement a plan to
increase its capital, and its ability to pay dividends and make acquisitions of new bank subsidiaries may be restricted or prohibited.
As discussed below under "Changes in Laws and Monetary Policies - Recent Amendments to Regulatory Capital Requirements,"
new risk-based and leverage capital guidelines went into effect on January 1, 2015. As of December 31, 2014, the FRB's risk-based
guidelines defined a two-tier capital framework. Tier 1 capital generally included common shareholders' equity, a limited amount
of trust preferred securities, minority interests and qualifying preferred stock, less goodwill and other adjustments. Tier 2
capital generally consisted of preferred stock not qualifying as Tier 1 capital, mandatory convertible debt, limited amounts of
subordinated debt, other qualifying term debt and the allowance for credit losses up to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets and other
adjustments. The sum of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital less investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries represented the total capital.
Prior to January 1, 2015,
the risk-based capital ratios were calculated by dividing Tier 1 and total capital by risk-weighted assets (including certain off-balance
sheet activities). The FRB's capital adequacy guidelines required that bank holding companies maintain a Tier 1 risk-based capital
ratio equal to at least 4% of its risk-weighted assets and a total risk-based capital ratio equal to at least 8% of its risk-weighted
assets. In addition, the FRB established a minimum leverage ratio for bank holding companies. Prior to January 1, 2015, the FRB's
capital adequacy guidelines required that bank holding companies meeting specified criteria (including having the highest regulatory
rating) maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio equal to at least 3% of its average total consolidated assets. All other bank holding
companies generally were required to maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 4%.
On December 31, 2014,
Hawthorn was in compliance with the FRB's capital adequacy guidelines. Hawthorn's capital ratios on December 31, 2014 and the minimum
requirements as of that date are shown below:

See "Changes in Laws
and Monetary Policies - Recent Amendments to Regulatory Capital Requirements" below for a discussion of the new risk-based
and leverage capital guidelines that went into effect on January 1, 2015.
Basel I, Basel II and
Basel III Accords. The risk-based capital guidelines that applied to us and our subsidiary bank as of December 31, 2014 were
based on the 1988 capital accord, referred to as Basel I, of the International Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (which we
refer to as the "Basel Committee"), a committee of central banks and bank supervisors, as implemented by federal bank
regulators. In 2008, the bank regulatory agencies began to phase-in capital standards based on a second capital accord issued by
the Basel Committee, referred to as Basel II, for large or "core" international banks (generally defined for U.S. purposes
as having total assets of $250 billion or more or consolidated foreign exposures of $10 billion or more). Because we do not anticipate
controlling any large or "core" international bank in the foreseeable future, Basel II does not apply to us. On September
12, 2010, the Group of Governors and Heads of Supervision, the oversight body of the Basel Committee, announced agreement on the
calibration and phase-in arrangements for a strengthened set of capital requirements, known as Basel III. In July 2013, the federal
banking agencies announced new risk-based capital and leverage ratios to conform to the Basel III framework and address provisions
of the Dodd-Frank Act. With respect to the Company and the Bank, these requirements become effective on January 1, 2015. See "Changes
in Laws and Monetary Policies - Recent Amendments to Regulatory Capital Requirements" below for a discussion of these new
Basel III requirements.
Interstate Banking and
Branching. Under the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (the "Riegle-Neal Act"),
a bank holding company is permitted to acquire the stock or substantially all of the assets of banks located in any state regardless
of whether such transaction is prohibited under the laws of any state. The FRB will not approve an interstate acquisition if, as
a result of the acquisition, the bank holding company would control more than 10% of the total amount of insured deposits in the
United States or would control more than 30% of the insured deposits in the home state of the acquired bank. The 30% of insured
deposits state limit does not apply if the acquisition is the initial entry into a state by a bank holding company or if the home
state waives such limit. The Riegle-Neal Act also authorizes banks to merge across state lines, thereby creating interstate branches.
The Bank and Savings Association Holding Company and Depository Institution Regulatory Improvements Act of 2010, a subset of the
Dodd-Frank Act discussed below, permits banks to acquire and establish de novo branches in other states if a state bank in that
other state would be permitted to establish the branch.
Under the Riegle-Neal Act,
individual states may restrict interstate acquisitions in two ways. A state may prohibit an out-of-state bank holding company from
acquiring a bank located in the state unless the target bank has been in existence for a specified minimum period of time (not
to exceed five years). A state may also establish limits on the total amount of insured deposits within the state which are controlled
by a single bank holding company, provided that such deposit limit does not discriminate against out-of-state bank holding companies.
Source of Strength.
Bank holding companies, such as the Company, are required by statute to serve as a source of financial strength for their subsidiary
depository institutions, by providing financial assistance to their insured depository institution subsidiaries in the event of
financial distress. Under the source of strength requirement, the Company could be required to provide financial assistance to
the Bank should it experience financial distress. Furthermore, the FRB has the right to order a bank holding company to terminate
any activity that the FRB believes is a serious risk to the financial safety, soundness or stability of any subsidiary bank. The
regulators may require these and other actions in support of controlled banks even if such action is not in the best interests
of the bank holding company or its stockholders.
Liability of Commonly
Controlled Institutions. Under cross-guaranty provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (the "FDIA"), bank
subsidiaries of a bank holding company are liable for any loss incurred by the Deposit Insurance Fund (the "DIF"), the
federal deposit insurance fund for banks, in connection with the failure of any other bank subsidiary of the bank holding company.
Bank Secrecy Act and
USA PATRIOT Act. The Company and the Bank must comply with the requirements of the Bank Secrecy Act (the "BSA").
The BSA was enacted to prevent banks and other financial service providers from being used as intermediaries for, or to hide the
transfer or deposit of money derived from, drug trafficking, money laundering, and other crimes. Since its passage, the BSA has
been amended several times. These amendments include the Money Laundering Control Act of 1986, which made money laundering a criminal
act, as well as the Money Laundering Suppression Act of 1994, which required regulators to develop enhanced examination procedures
and increased examiner training to improve the identification of money laundering schemes in financial institutions. The USA PATRIOT
Act, established in 2001, substantially broadened the scope of U.S. anti-money laundering laws and regulations by imposing significant
new compliance and due diligence obligations, creating new crimes and penalties
and expanding the extra-territorial
jurisdiction of the United States. The regulations impose obligations on financial institutions to maintain appropriate policies,
procedures and controls to detect, prevent, and report money laundering and terrorist financing. The regulations include significant
penalties for non-compliance.
Missouri Bank Holding
Company Regulation. Missouri prohibits any bank holding company from acquiring ownership or control of any bank or Missouri
depository trust company that has Missouri deposits if, after such acquisition, the bank holding company would hold or control
more than 13% of total Missouri deposits. Because of this restriction, among others, a bank holding company, prior to acquiring
control of a bank or depository trust company that has deposits in Missouri, must receive the approval of the Missouri Division
of Finance.
Regulation Applicable to the Bank
General. Hawthorn
Bank, a Missouri state non-member depository trust company, is subject to the regulation of the Missouri Division of Finance and
the FDIC. The FDIC is empowered to issue cease and desist orders against the Bank if it determines that any activities of the Bank
represent unsafe and unsound banking practices or violations of law. In addition, the FDIC has the power to impose civil money
penalties for violations of banking statutes and regulations. Regulation by these agencies is designed to protect the depositors
of the Bank; not shareholders of Hawthorn.
Bank Regulatory Capital
Requirements. The FDIC has adopted minimum capital requirements applicable to state non-member banks, which are similar to
the capital adequacy guidelines established by the FRB for bank holding companies. As of December 31, 2014, Federal banking laws
classified an insured financial institution in one of the following five categories, depending upon the amount of its regulatory
capital:
| · | "well-capitalized" if it has a total Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5% or greater, a Tier 1
risk-based capital ratio of 6% or greater and a total risk-based capital ratio of 10% or greater (and is not subject to any order
or written directive requiring the bank to adhere to a higher capital ratio); |
| · | "adequately capitalized" if it has a total Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4% or greater (or
a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 3% or greater, if the bank has a Capital adequacy, Asset quality, Management, Liquidity, and Sensitivity
to market risk (CAMELS) rating of 1), a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4% or greater, and a total risk-based capital ratio
of 8% or greater; |
| · | "undercapitalized" if it has a total Tier 1 leverage ratio that is less than 4% (or a
Tier 1 leverage ratio that is less than 3%, if the bank has a CAMELS rating of 1), a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio that is less
than 4% or a total risk-based capital ratio that is less than 8%; |
| · | "significantly undercapitalized" if it has a total Tier 1 leverage ratio that is less
than 3%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio that is less than 3% or a total risk-based ratio that is less than 6%; and |
| · | "critically undercapitalized" if it has a Tier 1 leverage ratio that is equal to or less
than 2%. |
Federal regulatory agencies
are required to take prompt corrective action against undercapitalized financial institutions. On December 31, 2014, the Bank was
classified as "well-capitalized," which is required for Hawthorn to remain a financial holding company. The capital ratios
and classifications of the Bank as of December 31, 2014 and the minimum requirements as of such date are shown on the following
chart.

In July 2013, the federal
banking agencies announced new risk-based capital and leverage ratios to conform to the Basel III framework and address provisions
of the Dodd-Frank Act. With respect to the Company and the Bank, these requirements became effective on January 1, 2015. See "Changes
in Laws and Monetary Policies - Recent Amendments to Regulatory Capital Requirements" below for a discussion of these new
Basel III requirements.
Limitations on Interest
Rates and Loans to One Borrower. The rate of interest a bank may charge on certain classes of loans is limited by state and
federal law. At certain times in the past, these limitations have resulted in reductions of net interest margins on certain classes
of loans. Federal and state laws impose additional restrictions on the lending activities of banks. The maximum amount that a Missouri
state-chartered bank may lend to any one person or entity is generally limited to 15% of the unimpaired capital of the bank located
in a city having a population of 100,000 or more, 20% of the unimpaired capital of the bank located in a city having a population
of less than 100,000 and over 7,000, and 25% of the unimpaired capital of the bank if located elsewhere in the state. In the case
of Missouri state-chartered banks with a composite rating of 1 or 2 under the Capital, Assets, Management, Earnings, Liquidity
and Sensitivity (CAMELS) rating system, the maximum amount is the greater of (i) the limits listed in the foregoing sentence or
(ii) 25% of the unimpaired capital of the bank.
Payment of Dividends.
The Company's primary source of funds is dividends from the Bank, and the Bank is subject to federal and state laws limiting the
payment of dividends. Under the FDIA, an FDIC-insured institution may not pay dividends while it is undercapitalized or if payment
would cause it to become undercapitalized. The National Bank Act and Missouri banking law also prohibit the declaration of a dividend
out of the capital and surplus of the bank.
Community Reinvestment
Act. The Bank is subject to the CRA and implementing regulations. The CRA regulations establish the framework and criteria
by which the bank regulatory agencies assess an institution's record of helping to meet the credit needs of its community, including
low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. CRA ratings are taken into account by regulators in reviewing certain applications made
by Hawthorn and its banking subsidiary.
Limitations on Transactions
with Affiliates. Hawthorn and its non-bank subsidiaries are "affiliates" within the meaning of the Federal Reserve
Act. The amount of loans or extensions of credit which the Bank may make to non-bank affiliates, or to third parties secured by
securities or obligations of the non-bank affiliates, are substantially limited by the Federal Reserve Act and the FDIA. Such acts
further restrict the range of permissible transactions between a bank and an affiliated company. A bank and its subsidiaries may
engage in certain transactions, including loans and purchases of assets, with an affiliated company only if the terms and conditions
of the transaction, including credit standards, are substantially the same as, or at least as favorable to the bank as, those prevailing
at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated companies or, in the absence of comparable transactions, on terms and
conditions that would be offered to non-affiliated companies.
Other Banking Activities.
The investments and activities of the Bank are also subject to regulation by federal and state banking agencies regarding,
among other things, investments in subsidiaries, investments for their own account (including limitations on investments in junk
bonds and equity securities), loans to officers, directors and their affiliates, security requirements, anti-tying limitations,
anti-money laundering, financial privacy and customer identity verification requirements, truth-in-lending, the types of interest
bearing deposit accounts which it can offer, trust department operations, brokered deposits, audit requirements, issuance of securities,
branching and mergers and acquisitions.

Regulatory Capital Requirements. In July 2013, the federal banking agencies approved amendments to their regulatory capital
rules to conform them to the international regulatory standards agreed to by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in the
accord often referred to as "Basel III". The revisions establish new higher capital ratio requirements, tighten
the definitions of capital, impose new operating restrictions on banking organizations with insufficient capital buffers and increase
the risk weighting of certain assets. The new capital requirements apply to all banks and savings associations, bank holding companies
with more than $500 million in assets and all savings and loan holding companies (other than certain savings and loan holding companies
engaged in insurance underwriting and grandfathered diversified holding companies) regardless of asset size. The rules
became effective for institutions with assets over $250 billion and internationally active institutions starting in January 2014
and became effective for all other institutions beginning in January 2015. The following discussion summarizes the changes
which are believed most likely to affect the Company and the Bank.
New and
Higher Capital Requirements. The regulations establish a new capital measure called "Common Equity
Tier 1 Capital" which consists of common stock instruments and related surplus (net of treasury stock), retained earnings,
accumulated other comprehensive income and, subject to certain adjustments, minority common equity interests in subsidiaries. Unlike
the rules in effect immediately prior to January 1,
2015, which excluded unrealized gains
and losses on available-for-sale debt securities from regulatory capital, the amended rules require accumulated other comprehensive
income to flow through to regulatory capital unless a one-time, irrevocable opt-out election is made in the first regulatory reporting
period under the new rule. Effective January 1, 2015, depository institutions and their holding companies are required
to maintain Common Equity Tier 1 Capital equal to at least 4.5% of risk-weighted assets.
The amended regulations
increased the required ratio of Tier 1 Capital to risk-weighted assets from 4% to 6%. Tier 1 Capital now consists of Common Equity
Tier 1 Capital plus Additional Tier 1 Capital elements which includes non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock. Cumulative
preferred stock (other than cumulative preferred stock issued to the U.S. Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program or the Small
Business Lending Fund) no longer qualifies as Additional Tier 1 Capital. Trust preferred securities and other non-qualifying
capital instruments issued prior to May 19, 2010 by bank and savings and loan holding companies with less than $15 billion
in assets as of December 31, 2009 or by mutual holding companies may continue to be included in Tier 1 Capital but will be phased
out over 10 years beginning in 2016 for all other banking organizations. These non-qualifying capital instruments, however,
may be included in Tier 2 Capital which may also include qualifying subordinated debt. The amended regulations also
require a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4% for all institutions, eliminating the 3% option for institutions with the highest
supervisory ratings. The minimum required ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets remains at 8%.
Capital
Conservation Buffer Requirement. In addition to higher capital requirements, depository institutions and their holding
companies will be required to maintain a common equity Tier 1 capital conservation buffer of at least 2.5% of risk-weighted assets
over and above the minimum risk-based capital requirements. Institutions that do not maintain the required capital buffer
will become subject to progressively more stringent limitations on the percentage of earnings that can be paid out in dividends
or used for stock repurchases and on the payment of discretionary bonuses to senior executive management. The capital
conservation buffer requirement will be phased in over four years beginning in 2016. The capital conservation buffer
requirement effectively raises the minimum required risk-based capital ratios to 7% Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, 8.5% Tier 1 Capital
and 10.5% Total Capital on a fully phased-in basis.
Changes
to Prompt Corrective Action Capital Categories. The Prompt Corrective Action rules were amended effective January
1, 2015 to incorporate a Common Equity Tier 1 Capital requirement and to raise the capital requirements for certain capital categories. In
order to be adequately capitalized for purposes of the prompt corrective action rules, a banking organization is required to have
at least an 8% Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio, a 6% Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio, a 4.5% Common Equity Tier 1 Risk Based Capital
Ratio and a 4% Tier 1 Leverage Ratio. To be well capitalized, a banking organization is required to have at least a
10% Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio, an 8% Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio, a 6.5% Common Equity Tier 1 Risk Based Capital Ratio
and a 5% Tier 1 Leverage Ratio.
Additional
Deductions from Capital. Banking organizations are required to deduct goodwill and other intangible assets (other than
certain mortgage servicing assets), net of associated deferred tax liabilities, from Common Equity Tier 1 Capital. Deferred
tax assets arising from temporary timing differences that cannot be realized through net operating loss (NOL) carrybacks continue
to be deducted. Deferred tax assets that can be realized through NOL carrybacks are not be deducted but will be subject
to 100% risk weighting. Defined benefit pension fund assets, net of any associated deferred tax liability, are deducted
from Common Equity Tier 1 Capital unless the banking organization has unrestricted and unfettered access to such assets. Reciprocal
cross-holdings of capital instruments in any other financial institutions are deducted from capital, not just holdings in other
depository institutions. For this purpose, financial institutions are broadly defined to include securities and commodities
firms, hedge and private equity funds and non-depository lenders. Banking organizations are required to deduct non-significant
investments (less than 10% of outstanding stock) in the capital of other financial institutions (including investments in trust
preferred securities) to the extent these exceed 10% of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital subject to a 15% of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital
cap. Greater than 10% investments must be deducted if they exceed 10% of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital. If
the aggregate amount of certain items excluded from capital deduction due to a 10% threshold exceeds 17.65% of Common Equity Tier
1 Capital, the excess must be deducted.
Changes
in Risk-Weightings. The federal banking agencies did not adopt a proposed rule that would have significantly
changed the risk-weighting for residential mortgages. Instead, the amended regulations continue to follow the capital
rules in effect as of December 31, 2014, which assign a 50% risk-weighting to "qualifying mortgage loans" which generally
consist of residential first mortgages with an 80% loan-to-value ratio (or which carry mortgage insurance that reduces the bank's
exposure to 80%) that are not more than 90 days past due. All other mortgage loans have a 100% risk weight. The
revised regulations apply a 250% risk-weighting to mortgage servicing rights, deferred tax assets that cannot be realized through
NOL carrybacks and investments in the capital instruments of other financial institutions that are not deducted from capital. The
revised regulations also create a new 150% risk-weighting category for "high volatility commercial real estate loans"
which are credit facilities for the acquisition, construction or development of real property other than for certain community
development projects, agricultural land and one- to four-family residential properties or commercial real projects where: (i) the
loan-to-value ratio is not in excess of interagency real estate lending standards; and (ii) the borrower has contributed capital
equal to not less than 15% of the real estate's "as completed" value before the loan is made.
Although the
Company continues to assess the impact of the new rules, management believes that, as of January 1, 2015, the Company's and the
Bank's capital levels would remain "well-capitalized" under the new rules.
Recent Legislation.
Various pieces of legislation, including proposals to change substantially the financial institution regulatory system, are
from time to time introduced and considered by the Missouri state legislature and the United States Congress. In July 2010, President
Barack Obama signed into law the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the "Dodd-Frank Act"), which
enacted substantial changes to the legal framework of the entire financial services industry. The Dodd-Frank Act mandates the passage
of numerous rules and regulations by various regulatory agencies over the next few years. It also creates the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau, which will overtake supervision of most providers of consumer financial products and services, and will be empowered
to declare acts or practices related to the delivery of a consumer financial product or service to be "unfair, deceptive or
abusive." This law will continue to change banking regulation and the operating environment of Hawthorn in substantial and
unpredictable ways. These changes could increase or decrease the cost of doing business, limit or expand permissible activities
or affect the competitive balance among banks, savings associations, credit unions and other financial institutions. Hawthorn cannot
predict the impact that the Dodd-Frank Act, and the various regulations issued thereunder will have on its business.
Fiscal Monetary Policies.
Hawthorn's business and earnings are affected significantly by the fiscal and monetary policies of the federal government and its
agencies. Hawthorn is particularly affected by the policies of the FRB, which regulates the supply of money and credit in the United
States. Among the instruments of monetary policy available to the FRB are:
| · | conducting open market operations in United States government securities; |
| · | changing the discount rates of borrowings of depository institutions; |
| · | imposing or changing reserve requirements against depository institutions' deposits; and |
| · | imposing or changing reserve requirements against certain borrowings by bank and their affiliates. |
These methods are used
in varying degrees and combinations to directly affect the availability of bank loans and deposits, as well as the interest rates
charged on loans and paid on deposits. The policies of the FRB have a material effect on Hawthorn's business, results of operations
and financial condition.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Risk Factors
We are identifying important
risks and uncertainties that could affect the Company's results of operations, financial condition or business and that could cause
them to differ materially from the Company's historical results of operations, financial condition or business, or those contemplated
by forward-looking statements made herein or elsewhere, by, or on behalf of, the Company. Factors that could cause or contribute
to such differences include, but are not limited to, those factors described below. The risk factors highlighted below are not
necessarily the only ones that the Company faces.
Because We Primarily
Serve Central And West Central Missouri, A Decline In The Local Economic Conditions Could Lower The Company's Profitability.
The profitability of Hawthorn is dependent on the profitability of its banking subsidiary, which operates out of central and west
central Missouri. The financial condition of this bank is affected by fluctuations in the economic conditions prevailing in the
portion of Missouri in which its operations are located. Accordingly, the financial conditions of both Hawthorn and its banking
subsidiary would be adversely affected by deterioration in the general economic and real estate climate in Missouri.
An increase in unemployment,
a decrease in profitability of regional businesses or real estate values or an increase in interest rates are among the factors
that could weaken the local economy. With a weaker local economy:
| • | customers may not want or need the products and services of the Bank, |
| • | borrowers may be unable to repay their loans, |
| • | the value of the collateral security of the Bank's loans to borrowers may decline, |
| • | the number of loan delinquencies and foreclosures may increase, and |
| • | the overall quality of the Bank's loan portfolio may decline. |
Originating mortgage loans
and consumer loans is a significant source of profits for Hawthorn's banking subsidiary. If individual customers in the local area
do not want or need these loans, profits may decrease. Although the Bank could make other investments, the Bank may earn less revenue
on these investments than on loans. Also, the Bank's losses on loans may increase if borrowers are unable to make payments on their
loans.
Interest Rate Changes
May Reduce The Profitability Of The Company And Of The Bank. The primary source of earnings for Hawthorn's banking subsidiary
is net interest income. To be profitable, the Bank has to earn more money in interest and fees on loans and other interest-earning
assets than it pays as interest on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities and as other expenses. If prevailing interest
rates decrease, the amount of interest the Bank earn on loans and investment securities may decrease more rapidly than the amount
of interest the Bank has to pay on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. This would result in a decrease in the profitability
of Hawthorn and its banking subsidiary.
Changes in the level or
structure of interest rates also affect:
| • | the Bank's ability to originate loans, |
| • | the value of the Bank's loan and securities portfolios, |
| • | the Bank's ability to realize gains from the sale of loans
and securities, |
| • | the average life of the Bank's deposits, and |
| • | the Bank's ability to obtain deposits. |
Fluctuations in interest
rates will ultimately affect both the level of income and expense recorded on a large portion of the Bank's assets and liabilities,
and the fair value of all interest-earning assets, other than interest-earning assets that mature in the short term. The Bank's
interest rate management strategy is designed to stabilize net interest income and preserve capital over a broad range of interest
rate movements by matching the interest rate sensitivity of assets and liabilities. Although Hawthorn believes that its Bank's
current mix of loans, mortgage-backed securities, investment securities and deposits is reasonable, significant fluctuations in
interest rates may have a negative effect on the profitability of the Bank.
Our Business Depends
On Our Ability To Successfully Manage Credit Risk. The operation of our business requires us to manage credit risk. As a lender,
our banking subsidiary is exposed to the risk that borrowers will be unable to repay their loans according to their terms, and
that the collateral securing repayment of their loans, if any, may not be sufficient to ensure repayment. In addition, there are
risks inherent in making any loan, including risks with respect to the period of time over which the loan may be repaid, risks
relating to proper loan underwriting, risks resulting from changes in economic and industry conditions and risks inherent in dealing
with individual borrowers. In order to successfully manage credit risk, we must, among other things, maintain disciplined and prudent
underwriting standards and ensure that our loan officers follow those standards. The weakening of these standards for any reason,
such as an attempt to attract higher yielding loans, a lack of discipline or diligence by our employees in underwriting and monitoring
loans, the inability of our employees to adequately adapt policies and procedures to changes in economic or any other conditions
affecting borrowers and the quality of our loan portfolio, may result in loan defaults, foreclosures and additional charge-offs
and may necessitate that we significantly increase our allowance for loan losses, each of which could adversely affect our net
income. As a result, our inability to successfully manage credit risk could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition or results of operations.
The Company's Profitability
Depends On The Bank's Asset Quality And Lending Risks. Success in the banking industry largely depends on the quality of loans
and other assets. The loan officers of Hawthorn's banking subsidiary are actively encouraged to identify deteriorating loans. Loans
are also monitored and categorized through an analysis of their payment status. The Bank's failure to timely and accurately monitor
the quality of its loans and other assets could have a materially adverse effect on the operations and financial condition of Hawthorn
and its banking subsidiary. There is a degree of credit risk associated with any lending activity. The Bank attempts to minimize
its credit risk through loan diversification. Although the Bank's loan portfolio is varied, with no undue concentration in any
one industry, substantially all of the loans in the portfolio have been made to borrowers in central, west central, and southwest
Missouri. Therefore, the loan portfolio is susceptible to factors affecting the central, west central, and southwest Missouri area
and the level of non-performing assets is heavily dependent upon local conditions. There can be no assurance that the level of
the Bank's non-performing assets will not increase above current levels. High levels of non-performing assets could have a materially
adverse effect on the operations and financial condition of Hawthorn and its banking subsidiary.
The Provision For Probable
Loan Losses May Need To Be Increased. Hawthorn's banking subsidiary makes a provision for loan losses based upon management's
estimate of probable losses in the loan portfolio and its consideration of prevailing economic and environmental conditions. The
amount of future loan losses is susceptible to changes in economic, operating and other conditions, including changes in interest
rates, which may be beyond the Company's control, and these losses may exceed current estimates. We cannot fully predict the amount
or timing of losses or whether the loss allowance will be adequate in the future. The Bank may need to increase the provision for
loan losses through additional provisions in the future if, among other things, the financial condition of any of its borrowers
deteriorates, if its borrower fails to perform its obligations to it, or if real estate values decline. Furthermore, various regulatory
agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank's loan portfolio, provision for loan losses,
and real estate acquired by foreclosure. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the provision for loan losses
based on their judgments of information available to them at the time of the examination. Any additional provision for probable
loan losses, whether required as a result of regulatory review or initiated by Hawthorn itself, may materially alter the financial
outlook of Hawthorn and its banking subsidiary and may have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and
results of operations.
Adverse Market Conditions
In The U.S. Economy And The Markets In Which We Operate Could Adversely Impact The Company's Business. General downward economic
trends, reduced availability of commercial credit, and increasing unemployment have negatively impacted the credit performance
of commercial and consumer credit, resulting in additional write-downs. Concerns over the stability of the financial markets and
the economy have resulted in decreased lending by financial institutions to their customers and to each other. This market turmoil
and tightening of credit has led to increased commercial and consumer deficiencies, lack of customer confidence, increased market
volatility and widespread reduction in general business activity. Competition among depository institutions for deposits has increased
significantly. Financial institutions have experienced decreased access to deposits or borrowings.
Although there has been
a modest recovery in the domestic economy, the recovery is weak and there can be no assurance that the economy will not enter into
another recession, whether in the near or long term future. Furthermore, real estate values and the demand for commercial real
estate loans have not fully recovered, and reduced availability of commercial credit and continuing unemployment have negatively
impacted the credit performance of commercial and consumer credit. Additional market developments such as a relapse or worsening
of economic conditions in other parts of the world would likely exacerbate the lingering effects of the difficult market conditions
experienced by us and others in the financial services industry and could further slow, stall or reverse the slow recovery in the
U.S. A further deterioration of overall market conditions, a continuation of the economic downturn or prolonged economic stagnation
in the Company's markets may have a negative impact on its business, financial condition, results of operations and the trading
price of its common stock. If the strength of the U.S. economy in general and the strength of the economy in areas where we lend
were to stagnate or decline, this could result in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality or a reduced demand for
credit, including a resultant adverse effect on the Company's loan portfolio and provision for losses on loans. This may exacerbate
the Company's exposure to credit risk, impair the Company's ability to assess the creditworthiness of its customers or to estimate
the values of its assets and adversely affect the ability of borrowers to perform under the terms of their lending arrangements
with us. Negative conditions in the real estate markets where we operate could adversely affect borrowers' ability to repay their
loans and the value of the underlying collateral. Real estate values are affected by various factors, including general economic
conditions, governmental rules or policies and natural disasters. These factors may adversely impact borrowers' ability to make
required payments, which in turn, may negatively impact the Company's financial results. As a result of the difficult market and
economic conditions referred to above, there is a potential for new federal or state laws and regulations regarding lending and
funding practices and liquidity standards, and for bank regulatory agencies to be very aggressive in responding to concerns and
trends identified in examinations. This increased government action may increase costs and limit the Company's ability to pursue
certain business opportunities.
We cannot predict whether
the difficult market and economic conditions will improve in the near future. A worsening of these conditions would likely exacerbate
the adverse effects of these difficult conditions on the Company, its customers and the other financial institutions in its market.
As a result, we may experience increases in foreclosures, delinquencies and customer bankruptcies, as well as more restricted access
to funds, and the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and stock price may be adversely affected.
The Soundness Of Other
Financial Institutions Could Adversely Affect Us. The Company's ability to engage in routine funding transactions could be
adversely affected by the actions and commercial soundness of other financial institutions. Financial services institutions are
interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty or other relationships. We have exposure to many different industries
and counterparties, and we routinely execute transactions with counterparties in the financial industry, including brokers and
dealers, commercial banks, investment banks, mutual and hedge funds, and other institutional clients. As a result, defaults by,
or even rumors or questions about, one or more financial services institutions, or the financial services industry generally, have
led to market-wide liquidity problems and could lead to losses or defaults by us or by other institutions. Many of these transactions
expose us to credit risk in the event of default of a counterparty or client. In addition, the Company's credit risk may be exacerbated
when the collateral held by us cannot be realized upon or is liquidated at prices not sufficient to recover the full amount of
the loan or derivative exposure due us. There is no assurance that any such losses would not materially and adversely affect the
Company's results of operations.
Deterioration In The
Housing Market Could Cause Further Increases In Delinquencies And Non-Performing Assets, Including Loan Charge-Offs, And Depress
The Company's Income And Growth. The volume of one-to-four family residential mortgages and home equity lines of credit may
decrease during economic downturns as a result of, among other things, a decrease in real estate values, an increase in unemployment,
a slowdown in housing price appreciation or increases in interest rates. These factors could reduce earnings and consequently the
Company's financial condition because:
| • | borrowers may not be able to repay their loans; |
| • | the value of the collateral securing loans may decline
further; |
| • | the quality of the Company's loan portfolio may decline
further; and |
| • | customers may not want or need the Company's products and
services. |
Any of these scenarios could
cause an increase in delinquencies and non-performing assets, require us to charge-off a higher percentage of loans, increase substantially
the provision for losses on loans, or make fewer loans, which would reduce income.
The FDIC's Changes in
the Calculation of Deposit Insurance Premiums and Ability to Levy Special Assessments Could Increase The Company's Non-Interest
Expense And May Reduce Its Profitability. The range of base assessment rates currently varies from 12 to 45 basis points depending
on an institution's risk category, with newly added financial measures resulting in increased assessment rates for institutions
heavily relying on brokered deposits to support rapid asset growth. However, the Dodd-Frank Act requires the FDIC to amend its
regulations to redefine the assessment base used for calculating deposit insurance assessments. On February 9, 2011, the FDIC adopted
a final rule that defines the assessment base as the average consolidated total assets during the assessment period minus the average
tangible equity of the insured depository institution during the assessment period. The FDIC also imposed a new assessment rate
scale. Under the new system, banks will pay assessments at a rate between 5 and 35 basis points per assets minus tangible equity,
depending upon an institution's risk category (the final rule also includes progressively lower assessment rate schedules when
the FDIC's reserve ratio reaches certain levels). The rulemaking changes the current assessment rate schedule so the schedule will
result in the collection of assessment revenue that is approximately the same as generated under the current rate schedule and
current assessment base. Nearly all banks with assets less than $10 billion will pay smaller deposit insurance assessments as a
result of the new rule. The majority of the changes in the FDIC's final rule became effective on April 1, 2011. The FDIC has the
statutory authority to impose special assessments on insured depository institutions in an amount, and for such purposes, as the
FDIC may deem necessary. The change in the calculation methodology for deposit insurance premiums and the possible emergency special
assessments could increase non-interest expense and may adversely affect the Company's profitability.
We May Elect Or Be Compelled
To Seek Additional Capital In The Future, But That Capital May Not Be Available When It Is Needed. We are required by regulatory
authorities to maintain adequate levels of capital to support operations. In addition, we may elect to raise additional capital
to support the growth of the Company's business or to finance acquisitions, if any, or we may elect to raise additional capital
for other reasons. In that regard, a number of financial institutions have recently raised considerable amounts of capital as a
result of a deterioration in their results of operations and financial condition arising from the turmoil in the mortgage loan
market, deteriorating economic conditions, declines in real estate values and other factors. Should we elect or be required by
regulatory authorities to raise additional capital, we may seek to do so through the issuance of, among other things, common stock
or securities
convertible into common stock,
which could dilute your ownership interest in the Company. Although we remain "well-capitalized" and have not had a deterioration
in liquidity, the future cost and availability of capital may be adversely affected by illiquid credit markets, economic conditions
and a number of other factors, many of which are outside of the Company's control. Accordingly, we cannot assure you of the ability
to raise additional capital if needed or on terms acceptable to us. If we cannot raise additional capital when needed or on terms
acceptable to us, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
If We Are Unable To
Successfully Compete For Customers In The Company's Market Area, The Company's Financial Condition And Results Of Operations Could
Be Adversely Affected. Hawthorn's banking subsidiary faces substantial competition in making loans, attracting deposits and
providing other financial products and services. The Bank has numerous competitors for customers in its market area.
Such competition for loans
comes principally from:
|
• |
other commercial banks |
|
• |
mortgage banking companies |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
• |
savings banks |
|
• |
finance companies |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
• |
savings and loan associations |
|
• |
credit unions |
Competition for deposits comes principally
from:
|
• |
other commercial banks |
|
• |
brokerage firms |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
• |
savings banks |
|
• |
insurance companies |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
• |
savings and loan associations |
|
• |
money market mutual funds |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
• |
credit unions |
|
• |
mutual funds (such as corporate |
|
|
|
|
|
and government securities funds) |
Many of these competitors
have greater financial resources and name recognition, more locations, more advanced technology and more financial products to
offer than the Bank. Competition from larger institutions may increase due to an acceleration of bank mergers and consolidations
in Missouri and the rest of the nation. In addition, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act removes many of the remaining restrictions in federal
banking law against cross-ownership between banks and other financial institutions, such as insurance companies and securities
firms. The law will likely increase the number and financial strength of companies that compete directly with the Bank. The profitability
of the Bank depends of its continued ability to attract new customers and compete in Missouri. New competitors, as well as the
expanding operations of existing competitors, have had, and are expected to continue to have, an adverse impact on the Bank's market
share of deposits and loans in the Bank's service areas. If the Bank is unable to successfully compete, its financial condition
and results of operations will be adversely affected.
We May Experience Difficulties
In Managing Growth And In Effectively Integrating Newly Acquired Companies. As part of the Company's general strategy, it may
continue to acquire banks and businesses that it believes provide a strategic fit with its business. To the extent that the Company
does grow, there can be no assurances that we will be able to adequately and profitably manage such growth. Acquiring other banks
and businesses will involve risks commonly associated with acquisitions, including:
| • | potential exposure to liabilities of the banks and businesses acquired; |
| • | difficulty and expense of integrating the operations and personnel of the banks and businesses
acquired; |
| • | difficulty and expense of instituting the necessary systems and procedures, including accounting
and financial reporting systems, to manage the combined enterprises on a profitable basis; |
| • | potential disruption to existing business and operations; |
| • | potential diversion of the time and attention of management; and |
| • | impairment of relationships with and the possible loss of key employees and customers of the banks
and businesses acquired. |
The success of the Company's
internal growth strategy will depend primarily on the ability of the Bank to generate an increasing level of loans and deposits
at acceptable risk levels and on acceptable terms without significant increases in
non-interest expenses relative
to revenues generated. There is no assurance that we will be successful in implementing the Company's internal growth strategy.
We May Be Adversely
Affected By Changes In Laws And Regulations Affecting The Financial Services Industry. Banks and bank holding companies such
as Hawthorn are subject to regulation by both federal and state bank regulatory agencies. The regulations, which are designed to
protect borrowers and promote certain social policies, include limitations on the operations of banks and bank holding companies,
such as minimum capital requirements and restrictions on dividend payments. The regulatory authorities have extensive discretion
in connection with their supervision and enforcement activities and their examination policies, including the imposition of restrictions
on the operation of a bank, the classification of assets by an institution and requiring an increase in a bank's allowance for
loan losses. These regulations are not necessarily designed to maximize the profitability of banking institutions.
In July 2010, President
Barack Obama signed into law the Dodd-Frank Act, which enacted substantial changes to the legal framework of the entire financial
services industry. The Dodd-Frank Act mandates the passage of numerous rules and regulations by various regulatory agencies over
the next few years. This legislation will change banking regulation and the operating environment of Hawthorn in substantial and
unpredictable ways. It could increase or decrease the cost of doing business, limit or expand permissible activities or affect
the competitive balance among banks, savings associations, credit unions and other financial institutions. Hawthorn cannot predict
the impact that the Dodd-Frank Act, and the various regulations issued thereunder will have on its business.
These, and other future
changes in the banking laws and regulations, could have a material adverse effect on the operations and financial condition of
Hawthorn and its banking subsidiary.
The Short-Term And Long-Term
Impact Of The Changing Regulatory Capital Requirements And New Capital Rules Is Uncertain. The federal banking agencies have
substantially amended the regulatory capital rules applicable to us and the Bank. The amendments implement the "Basel III"
regulatory capital reforms and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. The amended rules include new minimum risk-based
capital and leverage ratios, which became effective in January 2015, with certain requirements to be phased in beginning in 2016,
and refined the definition of what constitutes "capital" for purposes of calculating those ratios.
The application of more
stringent capital requirements to us and the Bank could, among other things, result in lower returns on invested capital, require
the raising of additional capital, and result in regulatory actions if we were to be unable to comply with such requirements. Implementation
of changes to asset risk weightings for risk based capital calculations, items included or deducted in calculating regulatory capital
and/or additional capital conservation buffers could result in management modifying its business strategy and could further limit
the Company's ability to make distributions, including paying out dividends or buying back shares.
The Bank Is A Community
Bank And Our Ability To Maintain The Bank's Reputation Is Critical To The Success Of Our Business And The Failure To Do So Could
Materially Adversely Affect Our Performance. The Bank is a community bank, and its reputation is one of the most valuable
components of our business. As such, we strive to conduct our business in a manner that enhances our reputation. This is done,
in part, by recruiting, hiring and retaining employees who share our core values of being an integral part of the communities we
serve, delivering superior service to our customers and caring about our customers and associates. If our reputation is negatively
affected, by the actions of our employees or otherwise, our business and, therefore, our operating results could be materially
adversely affected.
The Company's Success
Largely Depends On The Efforts Of Its Executive Officers. The success of Hawthorn and its banking subsidiary has been largely
dependent on the efforts of David Turner, Chairman, CEO, and President and the other executive officers. These individuals are
expected to continue to perform their services. However, the loss of the services of Mr. Turner, or any of the other key executive
officers could have a materially adverse effect on Hawthorn and its subsidiary bank.
If We Fail To Maintain
An Effective System Of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, We May Not Be Able To Accurately Report Our Financial Results
Or Prevent Fraud, And, As A Result, Investors And Depositors Could Lose Confidence In Our Financial Reporting, Which Could Adversely
Affect Our Business, The Trading Price Of Our Stock, And Our Ability To Attract Additional Deposits. We are required to include
in our
annual reports filed with
the SEC a report from our management regarding internal control over financial reporting. As a result, we documented and evaluated
our internal control over financial reporting in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and
SEC rules and regulations, which require an annual management report on our internal control over financial reporting, including,
among other matters, management's assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Failure or circumvention
of our system of internal control could have an adverse effect on our business, profitability, and financial condition, and could
result in regulatory actions and loss of investor confidence. Additionally, if we fail to identify and correct any significant
deficiencies or material weaknesses in the design or operating effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting or
fail to prevent fraud, current and potential stockholders and depositors could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which
could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, the trading price of our stock and our ability
to attract additional deposits.
We Are Subject To Security
And Operational Risks Relating To Our Use Of Technology That Could Damage Our Reputation And Our Business. We rely heavily
on communications and information systems to conduct our business. Furthermore, we have access to large amounts of confidential
financial information and control substantial financial assets, including those belonging to our customers, to whom we offer remote
access, and we regularly transfer substantial financial assets by electronic means. Our operations are dependent upon our ability
to protect our computer equipment against damage from physical theft, fire, power loss, telecommunications failure or a similar
catastrophic event, as well as from security breaches, denial of service attacks, viruses, worms and other disruptive problems
caused by hackers. Any failure, interruption or breach in security of our systems could damage our reputation, result in a loss
of customer business, subject us to additional regulatory scrutiny, or expose us to civil litigation and possible financial liability,
any of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Although we intend to continue
to implement security technology and establish operational procedures to prevent such damage, our security measures may not be
successful.
In addition, advances in
computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other developments could result in a compromise or breach
of the algorithms we and our third-party service providers use to encrypt and protect customer transaction data. A failure of such
security measures could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. We also face the risk
of operational disruption, failure, termination or capacity constraints caused by third parties that facilitate our business activities
by providing technology such as software applications, as well as financial intermediaries. Such parties could also be the source
of an attack on, or breach of, our operational systems, data or infrastructure.
We also face the potential
risk of loss due to fraud, including commercial checking account fraud, automated teller machine ("ATM") skimming and
trapping, write-offs necessitated by debit card fraud, and other forms of online banking fraud, which are becoming more sophisticated
and present new challenges as mobile banking increases, as well as employee fraud. Employee errors could also subject us to financial
claims for negligence. We maintain a system of internal controls and insurance coverage to mitigate against operational risks,
including data processing system failures and errors and customer or employee fraud. Should our internal controls fail to prevent
or detect an occurrence, and if any resulting loss is not insured or exceeds applicable insurance limits, such failure could have
a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Operation Of Our
Business, Including Our Interaction With Customers, Are Increasingly Done Via Electronic Means, And This Has Increased Our Risks
Related To Cybersecurity. We are 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. We have observed an increased level of attention in the industry 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. Cyber-attacks may also be carried out in a
manner that does not require gaining unauthorized access, such as by causing denial-of-service attacks on websites. Cyber-attacks
may be carried out by third parties or insiders using techniques that range from highly sophisticated efforts to electronically
circumvent network security or overwhelm websites to more traditional intelligence gathering and social engineering aimed at obtaining
information necessary to gain access. The objectives of cyber-attacks vary widely and can include theft of financial assets, intellectual
property, or other sensitive information, including the information belonging to our banking customers. Cyber-attacks may also
be directed at disrupting our operations.
We may incur substantial
costs and suffer other negative consequences if we fall 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 may have been caused;
increased cybersecurity protection costs that may include organizational changes, 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.
We Continually Encounter
Technological Change, And We Cannot Predict How Changes In Technology Will Affect Our Business. The financial services industry
is continually undergoing rapid technological change with frequent introductions of new technology driven by products and services,
which include developments in:
|
• |
telecommunications |
|
• |
internet-based banking |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
• |
data processing |
|
• |
telebanking |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
• |
automation |
|
• |
debit cards and so-called "smart cards" |
The effective use of technology
increases efficiency and enables financial institutions to better serve customers and to reduce costs. Our future success depends,
in part, upon our ability to address the needs of our customers by using technology to provide products and services that will
satisfy customer demands, as well as to create additional efficiencies in our operations. Many of our competitors have substantially
greater resources to invest in technological improvements. We may not be able to effectively implement new technology driven products
and services or be successful in marketing these products and services to our customers. Failure to successfully keep pace with
technological change affecting the financial services industry could have a material adverse impact on our business and, in turn,
our financial condition and results of operations.
We Rely On Others To
Provide Key Components Of Our Business Infrastructure. Third party vendors provide key components of our business infrastructure
such as internet connections, network access and core application processing. While we have selected these third party vendors
carefully, we do not control their actions. Any problems caused by these third parties, including as a result of their not providing
us their services for any reason or their performing their services poorly, could adversely affect our ability to deliver products
and services to our customers or otherwise conduct our business efficiently and effectively. Replacing these third party vendors
could also entail significant delay and expense.
The Price Of Our Common
Stock Could Fluctuate Significantly, And This Could Make It Difficult For You To Resell Shares Of Our Common Stock At Times Or
At Prices You Find Attractive. The stock market and, in particular, the market for financial institution stocks, has experienced
significant volatility during the recent economic downturn. In some cases, the markets have produced downward pressure on stock
prices for certain issuers without regard to those issuers' underlying financial strength. As a result, the trading volume in our
common stock could fluctuate more than usual and cause significant price variations to occur. This could make it difficult for
you to resell shares of our common stock at times or at prices you find attractive.
The trading price of the
shares of our common stock will depend on many factors that could change from time to time and could be beyond our control. Among
the factors that could affect our stock price are those identified under the heading "Forward-Looking Statements" in
Item 7 of this report and as follows:
| · | actual or anticipated quarterly fluctuations in our operating results and financial condition; |
| · | changes in financial estimates or publication of research reports and recommendations by financial
analysts or actions taken by rating agencies with respect to our common stock or those of other financial institutions; |
| · | failure to meet analysts' revenue or earnings estimates; |
| · | speculation in the press or investment community generally or relating to our reputation, our market
area, our competitors or the financial services industry in general; |
| · | strategic actions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions, restructurings, dispositions
or financings; |
| · | actions by our current stockholders, including sales of common stock by existing stockholders and/or
directors and executive officers; |
| · | fluctuations in the stock price and operating results of our competitors; |
| · | future sales of our equity, equity-related or debt securities; |
| · | changes in the frequency or amount of dividends or share repurchases; |
| · | proposed or adopted regulatory changes or developments; |
| · | investigations, proceedings or litigation that involve or affect us; |
| · | trading activities in our common stock, including short-selling; |
| · | domestic and local economic factors unrelated to our performance; and |
| · | general market conditions and, in particular, developments related to market conditions for the
financial services industry. |
A significant decline in
our stock price could result in substantial losses for individual stockholders and could lead to costly and disruptive securities
litigation.
The Trading Volume In
Our Common Stock Has Been Low, And The Sale Of A Substantial Number Of Shares Of Our Common Stock In The Public Market Could Depress
The Price Of Our Common Stock And Make It Difficult For You To Sell Your Shares. Our common stock is listed to trade on the
NASDAQ Global Select Market, but is thinly traded. As a result, you may not be able to sell your shares of common stock on short
notice. Additionally, thinly traded stock can be more volatile than stock trading in an active public market. The sale of a substantial
number of shares of our common stock at one time could temporarily depress the market price of our common stock, making it difficult
for you to sell your shares and impairing our ability to raise capital.
Our Common Stock Is
Not Insured By Any Governmental Entity. Our common stock is not a deposit account or other obligation of any bank and is not
insured by the FDIC or any other governmental entity.
Additional Factors.
Additional risks and uncertainties that may affect the future results of operations, financial condition or business of the Company
and its banking subsidiary include, but are not limited to: (i) adverse publicity, news coverage by the media, or negative reports
by brokerage firms, industry and financial analysts regarding the Bank or the Company; and (ii) changes in accounting policies
and practices.

"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the Company's 2014 Annual
Report to Shareholders.
Forward-Looking Statements
This report, including
information included or incorporated by reference in this report, contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to the
financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, strategy, future performance and business of the Company and its
subsidiaries, including, without limitation:
| · | statements that are not historical in nature, and |
| · | statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words "believes," "expects,"
"may," "will," "should," "could," "anticipates," "estimates," "intends"
or similar expressions. |
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees
of future performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from
those contemplated by the forward-looking statements due to, among others, the following factors:
| · | competitive pressures among financial services companies may increase significantly, |
| · | changes in the interest rate environment may reduce interest margins, |
| · | general economic conditions, either nationally or in Missouri, may be less favorable than expected
and may adversely affect the quality of the Company's loans and other assets, |
| · | increases in non-performing assets in the Company's loan portfolios and adverse economic conditions
may necessitate increases to the provisions for loan losses, |
| · | costs or difficulties related to the integration of the business of Hawthorn and its acquisition
targets may be greater than expected, |
| · | legislative or regulatory changes may adversely affect the business in which Hawthorn and its subsidiaries
are engaged, and |
| · | changes may occur in the securities markets. |
We have described additional factors that could
cause actual results to be materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements, which factors are identified
in Item 1A of this report under the heading "Risk Factors." Other factors that we have not identified in this report
could also have this effect. You are cautioned not to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statement, which speak only as
of the date such statement is made. Except as otherwise required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise
any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures About Market Risk.
The Company's exposure
to market risk is reviewed on a regular basis by our Bank's asset/liability committee and board of directors. Interest rate risk
is the potential of economic losses due to future interest rate changes. These economic losses can be reflected as a loss of future
net interest income and/or a loss of current fair market values. The objective is to measure the effect on net interest income
and to adjust the balance sheet to minimize the inherent risk while at the same time maximizing income. Management realizes certain
risks are inherent and that the goal is to identify and minimize those risks. Tools used by the Bank's management include the standard
GAP report subject to different rate shock scenarios. At December 31, 2014, the rate shock scenario models indicated that annual
net interest income could change by as much as -18.3% to +25.5% should interest rates rise or fall within 400 basis points from
their current level over a one year period. However there are no assurances that the change will not be more or less than this
estimate.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure
Controls and Procedures.
An evaluation was performed
under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)
promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of December 31, 2014. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s
management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, as of December 31, 2014, the Company’s
disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Internal Controls Over
Financial Reporting.
Management's
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
The Company's
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, as such term is
defined in Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management,
including the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness
of the Company's internal control over financial reporting, as of December 31, 2014, based on the framework set forth by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (1992). Based upon its assessment,
management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2014, the Company's internal control over financial reporting, is effective based
on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (1992).
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. As discussed in the Company’s
September 30, 2014 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on November 14, 2014, during the quarter, the Company’s
management discovered an instance of employee fraud resulting in the loss of an aggregate $421,000 of cash over an extended period
of time. As a result of the discovery, the Company recorded a $136,000 loss in its consolidated financial statements as of
December 31, 2014, representing the $421,000 gross loss, net of expected insurance proceeds of $285,000. The Company determined
that any adjustments relating to prior-period financial statements were immaterial.
Although this
employee fraud was ultimately discovered as a result of high-level controls in place at the Company, management determined that
the operation of the Company’s controls related to cash reconcilement and accounting were not effective at that time to ensure
consistent application of established policies and procedures, including those designed to detect or prevent certain unauthorized,
fraudulent transactions, and that such deficiency constituted a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting. Accordingly, the Company promptly took steps to enhance its cash controls and procedures to remediate such
material weakness, including, among other things, the adoption of clarifying revisions to existing policies to aid in their effective
implementation, adjustments to the level of precision at which the controls operate, enhancements to the segregation of certain
duties, and additional communication from senior management regarding effective application of existing controls and procedures.
In addition to these remedial measures, the Company performed a cash count at all of its branches utilizing the enhanced controls
and procedures to ensure that cash totals reconciled to its financial statements.
Management has
made a comprehensive review, evaluation, and assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2014. In making its assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting,
management used the framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated
Framework (1992). Based on that assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2014, the remedial measures discussed
above have strengthened the Company’s internal control over financial reporting to the extent necessary to remedy the material
weakness relating to the detection and prevention of certain unauthorized, fraudulent transactions and that the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting was effective.
Management's
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, as of December 31, 2014, has been audited by KPMG
LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included herein.
Changes in Internal Controls.
Other than the
remediation of the cash controls and procedures noted above, there has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial
reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely
to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.
Report
of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc.:
We have
audited Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc.'s (the Company) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31,
2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). 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, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on the audit.
We conducted
our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the
circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
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.
In our opinion,
Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31,
2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
We also have
audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance
sheets of Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements
of income, comprehensive income,
stockholders' equity,
and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2014, and the report dated March 31, 2015
expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Exhibit 13
2014
ANNUAL REPORT
TO
SHAREHOLDERS
HAWTHORN BANCSHARES, INC.
Jefferson City, Missouri
March 31, 2015
Dear Shareholders:
I am pleased to report that net income for 2014 increased 76% over 2013 and reached its highest level since 2007. For 2014, Hawthorn reported a net profit of $7.7 million compared to $4.4 million for 2013. As a result of our 2013 U.S. Treasury debt repayment, all of the Company’s 2014 net income was available to common shareholders, and we are pleased to report 2014 diluted earnings per share of $1.46 compared to $0.83 for 2013.
Our earnings improvement for 2014 was primarily due to a $4.1 million reduction in foreclosed property expenses and a $2.0 million decrease in the provision for loan losses. Foreclosed property expenses fell largely because we sold a significant portion of foreclosed properties in 2013. Continuation of those sales in 2014 led to our lowest year-end ORE balance since 2009. The decrease in the provision for loan losses resulted from the determination, following continuing, extensive evaluation of loan portfolio risk, that no provision was required for 2014.
Net interest income for 2014 was $39.5 million compared to $39.3 million for 2013. On a tax equivalent basis, Hawthorn’s net interest margin was 3.72% for both 2014 and 2013. Although our net interest margin remained flat due to the historically low rate environment and continued competition for quality loans, it continues to be healthy and exceeds peer averages.
Non-interest income for 2014 was $8.7 million compared to $10.9 million for 2013. The decrease is primarily the result of lower real estate service fees and mortgage sales income and $0.8 million of gains realized in 2013 on the sale of investment securities. Non-interest expense for 2014 was $36.5 million compared to $40.8 million for 2013. The largest contributor to the decrease resulted from lower expenses related to foreclosed properties.
Our Capital levels at December 31, 2014 continue to exceed regulatory well capitalized thresholds with 9.42% of leverage capital and 15.78% of total risk-based capital.
While 2014 was certainly better than 2013, I am still not satisfied with our performance. We must continue to improve upon our 0.66% return on average assets and 9.69% return on average common equity for 2014. As an investor, director and executive officer, I am committed to maintaining strong asset quality, improving earnings performance, sustaining sound and proper capital levels and paying regular dividends.
Our focus remains the same - to prudently and safely grow the company. We have built a structure to deliver quality service to customers. We have developed a team of experienced first class lenders who are bringing in loan opportunities, but also meeting the customer’s treasury management needs. We want, and strive for, the entire customer relationship. While good opportunities to grow exist within our current markets, we are in an excellent position to take advantage of acquisition opportunities that may arise as the banking industry consolidates.
Finally, I would like to reflect on the passing of Director Harold Butzer in 2014. Harold was a strong advisor to our Company for more than 49 years. His contributions to the board and committees will be missed. Also, I would like to welcome Frank Burkhead to our board of directors. Frank was added to our management team in 2014 as Director Charles Dudenhoeffer, Jr. transitioned to advisory director status. Frank is a certified public accountant with much experience in wealth management.
Hawthorn Bancshares’ future is bright and you should feel confident about your investment. Your bankers are highly professional and I respect their talents immensely. On behalf of your board and management team, thank you for your continued trust and confidence.
Sincerely,
David T. Turner,
Chairman & Chief Executive Officer

This report contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business of the Company, Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc., and its subsidiaries, including, without limitation:
•
statements that are not historical in nature, and
•
statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words believes, expects, may, will, should, could, anticipates, estimates, intends or similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements due to, among others, the following factors:
•
competitive pressures among financial services companies may increase significantly,
•
changes in the interest rate environment may reduce interest margins,
•
general economic conditions, either nationally or in Missouri, may be less favorable than expected and may adversely affect the quality of our loans and other assets,
•
increases in non-performing assets in the Company’s loan portfolios and adverse economic conditions may necessitate increases to our provisions for loan losses,
•
costs or difficulties related to the integration of the business of the Company and its acquisition targets may be greater than expected,
•
legislative or regulatory changes may adversely affect the business in which the Company and its subsidiaries are engaged, and
•
changes may occur in the securities markets.
We have described under the caption Risk Factors in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, and in other reports filed with the SEC from time to time, additional factors that could cause actual results to be materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements. Other factors that have not been identified in this report could also have this effect. You are cautioned not to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statement, which speak only as of the date they were made.
HAWTHORN BANCSHARES, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
Crucial to the Company’s community banking strategy is growth in its commercial banking services, retail mortgage lending and retail banking services. Through the branch network of its subsidiary bank, Hawthorn Bank (the Bank), the Company, with $1.2 billion in assets at December 31, 2014, provides a broad range of commercial and personal banking services. The Bank’s specialties include commercial banking for small and mid-sized businesses, including equipment, operating, commercial real estate, Small Business (SBA) loans, and personal banking services including real estate mortgage lending, installment and consumer loans, certificates of deposit, individual retirement and other time deposit accounts, checking accounts, savings accounts, and money market accounts. Other financial services that the Company provides include trust services that include estate planning, investment and asset management services and a comprehensive suite of cash management services. The geographic areas in which the Company provides products and services include the communities in and surrounding Jefferson City, Columbia, Clinton, Warsaw, Springfield, Branson, and Lee’s Summit, Missouri.
The Company’s primary source of revenue is net interest income derived primarily from lending and deposit taking activities. Much of the Company’s business is commercial, commercial real estate development, and mortgage lending. The Company has experienced soft loan demand in the communities within which we operate during the current economic slowdown. The Company’s income from mortgage brokerage activities is directly dependent on mortgage rates and the level of home purchases and refinancings.
The success of the Company’s growth strategy depends primarily on the ability of its banking subsidiary to generate an increasing level of loans and deposits at acceptable risk levels and on acceptable terms without significant increases in non-interest expenses relative to revenues generated. The Company’s financial performance also depends, in part, on its ability to manage various portfolios and to successfully introduce additional financial products and services by expanding new and existing customer relationships, utilizing improved technology, and enhancing customer satisfaction. Furthermore, the success of the Company’s growth strategy depends on its ability to maintain sufficient regulatory capital levels during periods in which general economic conditions are unfavorable and despite economic conditions being beyond its control.
The Company’s subsidiary bank is a full-service bank conducting a general banking business, offering its customers checking and savings accounts, debit cards, certificates of deposit, safety deposit boxes and a wide range of lending services, including commercial and industrial loans, residential real estate loans, single payment personal loans, installment loans and credit card accounts. In addition, the Bank provides trust services.
The deposit accounts of the Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to the extent provided by law. The operations of the Bank are supervised and regulated by the FDIC and the Missouri Division of Finance. Periodic examinations of the Bank are conducted by representatives of the FDIC and the Missouri Division of Finance. Such regulations, supervision and examinations are principally for the benefit of depositors, rather than for the benefit of shareholders. The Company is subject to supervision and examination by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

(2)
Nonperforming assets consist of nonperforming loans and foreclosed assets.
(3)
Efficiency ratio is calculated as non-interest expense as a percentage of revenue. Total revenue includes net interest income and non-interest income.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following accounting policies are considered most critical to the understanding of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. These critical accounting policies require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. Because these estimates and judgments are based on current circumstances, they may change over time or prove to be inaccurate based on actual experiences. In the event that different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, and depending upon the severity of such changes, the possibility of a materially different financial condition and/or results of operations could reasonably be expected. The impact and any associated risks related to the Company’s critical accounting policies on its business operations are discussed throughout Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, where such policies affect the reported and expected financial results.
Allowance for Loan Losses
Management has identified the accounting policy related to the allowance for loan losses as critical to the understanding of the Company’s results of operations, since the application of this policy requires significant management assumptions and estimates that could result in materially different amounts to be reported if conditions or underlying circumstances were to change. Further discussion of the methodology used in establishing the allowance and the impact of any associated risks related to these policies on the Company’s business operations is provided in Note 1 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and is also discussed in the Lending and Credit Management section below. Many of the loans are deemed collateral dependent for purposes of the measurement of the impairment loss, thus the fair value of the underlying collateral and sensitivity of such fair values due to changing market conditions, supply and demand, condition of the collateral and other factors can be volatile over periods of time. Such volatility can have an impact on the financial performance of the Company.
Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets
Other real estate owned and repossessed assets consist of loan collateral that has been repossessed through foreclosure. This collateral is comprised of commercial and residential real estate and other non-real estate property, including autos, manufactured homes, and construction equipment. Other real estate owned assets are initially recorded as held for sale at the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Any adjustment is recorded as a charge-off against the allowance for loan losses. The Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by internal staff. In the case of non-real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety of sources, including external estimates of value and judgment based on experience and expertise of internal specialists. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the assets may be written down to reflect a new cost basis. The write-downs are recorded as other real estate expense, net. The Company establishes a valuation allowance related to other real estate owned on an asset-by-asset basis. The valuation allowance is created during the holding period when the fair value less cost to sell is lower than the cost of the property.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ANALYSIS
The Company has prepared all of the consolidated financial information in this report in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). In preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurances that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

Preferred Stock On December 19, 2008, the Company announced its participation in the U.S. Treasury Department’s Capital Purchase Program (CPP), a voluntary program that provides capital to financially healthy banks. Participation in this program included the Company’s issuance of 30,255 shares of senior preferred stock (with a par value of $1,000 per share) and a ten year warrant to purchase approximately 287,133 shares of common stock. On May 9, 2012, the Company redeemed 12,000 of the 30,255 shares of preferred stock issued under the U.S. Treasury’s CPP program for a total purchase price of $12.1 million, and on May 15, 2013, the remaining 18,255 shares were redeemed for a total purchase price of $18.5 million.
On June 11, 2013 the common stock warrant issued under the U.S. Treasury Department’s CPP program was repurchased by the Company for a total purchase price of $540,000, or $1.88 per warrant share. The purchase price was based on the fair value of the warrant as agreed upon by the Company and the Treasury. The repurchase of the warrant ended the Company’s participation in the U.S Treasury Department’s CPP.
Stock Dividend For the sixth consecutive year, on July 1, 2014, the Company distributed a four percent stock dividend to common shareholders of record at the close of business on June 15, 2014. For all periods presented, share information, including basic and diluted earnings per share, has been adjusted retroactively to reflect the stock dividend.
Consolidated net income of $7.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 increased $2.7 million compared to consolidated net income of $5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. Net income available to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $7.7 million, or $1.46 per diluted common share, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $4.4 million, or $0.83 per diluted common share for the year ended December 31, 2013. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the return on average assets was 0.66%, the return on average common stockholders’ equity was 9.69%, and the efficiency ratio was 75.74%.
For the year ended December 31, 2013, consolidated net income of $5.0 million increased $2.2 million compared to a consolidated net income of $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. Net income available to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $4.4 million, or $0.83 per diluted common share, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $1.0 million, or $0.20 per diluted common share for the year ended December 31, 2012. For the year ended December 31, 2013,
the return on average assets was 0.43%, the return on average common stockholders’ equity was 5.95%, and the efficiency ratio was 81.22%. The lower level of dividends and accretion on preferred stock for the year ended December 31, 2013 resulted from the Company’s redemption of the remaining 18,255 shares of preferred stock issued under the U.S. Treasury’s CPP program on May 15, 2013.
Net interest income was $39.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $39.3 million and $41.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The increase from 2013 was primarily due to an increase in average loan volume, while the decrease from 2012 was primarily due to lower average earning asset levels and continued contraction of the net interest margin resulting from the prolonged low interest rate environment. The net interest margin was 3.72% for both the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, compared to 3.84% for the year ended December 31, 2012.
No provision for loan losses was required for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $2.0 million and $8.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. This was primarily due to decreases in the Company’s historical loss rates based on the Company’s last thirty-six months of charge-off experience. Net charge-offs for the year ended December 31, 2014, were $4.7 million, or 0.54% of average loans compared to $3.2 million, or 0.38% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2013, and $7.9 million, or 0.93% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2012. Non-performing assets were 4.09% of total assets at December 31, 2014 compared to 4.40% at December 31, 2013, and 5.33% at December 31, 2012.
Non-interest income decreased $2.1 million, or 19.5%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, and increased $1.1 million, or 11.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. These changes are discussed in greater detail below under Non-interest Income.
Non-interest expense decreased $4.3 million, or 10.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, and increased $2.1 million, or 5.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. These increases are discussed in greater detail below under Non-interest Expense.
Average Balance Sheets
Net interest income is the largest source of revenue resulting from the Company’s lending, investing, borrowing, and deposit gathering activities. It is affected by both changes in the level of interest rates and changes in the amounts and mix of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. The following table presents average balance sheets, net interest income, average yields of earning assets, average costs of interest bearing liabilities, net interest spread and net interest margin on a fully taxable equivalent basis for each of the years in the three year periods ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.

Financial results for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013 reflected an increase in net interest income, on a tax equivalent basis, of $133,000, or 0.33%, and a decrease of $1.9 million, or 4.6% for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in net interest income in 2014 over 2013 was primarily due to an increase in average loan volume partially offset by a decrease in rates earned. The decrease in net interest income in 2013 over 2012 was primarily due to lower average earning asset levels and contraction of the net interest
margin resulting from the prolonged low interest rate environment. Measured as a percentage of average earning assets, the net interest margin (expressed on a fully taxable equivalent basis) was 3.72% for both the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, compared to 3.84% for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Average interest-earning assets increased $3.6 million, or 0.33%, to $1.1 billion for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013 and average interest bearing liabilities decreased $9.4 million, or 1.1%, to $882.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $891.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Average interest-earning assets decreased $14.3 million, or 1.3%, to $1.1 billion for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012 and average interest bearing liabilities decreased $17.2 million, or 1.9%, to $891.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $908.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Total interest income (expressed on a fully taxable equivalent basis) decreased to $45.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $46.2 million and $49.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company’s rates earned on interest earning assets were 4.18% for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to 4.31% and 4.57% for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Interest income on loans decreased to $40.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $41.2 million and $44.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Average loans outstanding increased $19.1 million, or 2.3%, to $852.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $833.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The average yield on loans receivable decreased to 4.74% during the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to 4.94% for the year ended December 31, 2013 primarily as a result of decreasing market interest rates.
Average loans outstanding decreased $9.5 million, or 1.1%, to $833.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $843.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The average yield on loans receivable decreased to 4.94% during the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to 5.23% for the year ended December 31, 2012 primarily as a result of decreasing market interest rates.

NM - not meaningful
Total non-interest income decreased $2.1 million, or 19.5%, to $8.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $10.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, and increased $1.1 million, or 11.7%, to $10.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $9.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. On January 1, 2012, the Company opted to measure mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) at fair value as permitted by Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 860-50, Accounting for Servicing Financial Assets. The election of this option resulted in the recognition of a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $459,890, which was recorded as an increase to beginning retained earnings, as further described in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements. As such, effective January 1, 2012, the change in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights is recognized in real estate servicing fees, net in non-interest income for the period in which the change occurs.
Real estate servicing fees, net decreased $557,000 to $319,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, and increased $1.3 million to $876,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. Net real estate servicing fees include mortgage loan servicing fees and the gains or losses due to the change in fair value of MSRs arising from inputs and assumptions as well as paydowns and payoffs. Mortgage loan servicing fees earned on loans sold were $896,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $901,000 and $878,000 for the years ended 2013 and 2012, respectively. Total net losses recognized related to MSRs due to the change in fair value were $576,000, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to net losses of $25,000 and $1.3 million for the years December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The net losses recognized related to MSRs in 2012 included a one time adjustment of $538,000 correction of an immaterial prior period error due to changing from the straight-line amortization method to an accelerated amortization method of accounting for amortizing MSRs in prior years. The Company was servicing $313.9 million of mortgage loans at December 31, 2014 compared to $322.5 million and $310.6 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Gain on sales of mortgage loans decreased $572,000 to $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, and decreased $1.0 million to $1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The Company sold loans of $36.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $76.0 million and $99.8 million for the years ended 2013 and 2012, respectively. Refinancing activity impacting both the volume of loans sold and gains recognized began to slow down during 2013 due to rising interest rates that carried into 2014. During
2013, the Company increased its repurchase reserve liability by $160,000 for estimated losses incurred on sold loans that is included in total gain on sales of mortgage loans.
Gain on sale of investment securities During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company received $5.3 million from proceeds on sales of available-for-sale debt securities and recognized net gains of $20,000 compared to during the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company received $32.6 million from proceeds on sales of available-for-sale debt securities and recognized gains of $778,000. These transactions were the result of bond sales and purchases to replace several smaller holdings with fewer, larger investments without materially changing the duration or yield of the investment portfolio.
Non-interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012 was as follows:

Efficiency ratio is calculated as non-interest expense as a percentage of revenue. Total revenue includes net interest income and non-interest income.
**
Does not include other real estate expense, gain on sale of investments, or a one time consulting fee
Total non-interest expense decreased $4.3 million, or 10.4%, to $36.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013 and increased $2.1 million, or 5.4%, to $40.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012.
Salaries increased $1.0 million, or 7.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, and increased $333,000, or 2.3%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase for the year ended 2014 over 2013 was primarily due to the accrual for a 2014 incentive program approved by the Board of Directors, while the increase in 2013 over 2012 was primarily due to annual salary increases.
Legal, examination, and professional fees increased $177,000, or 18.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to December 31, 2013, and decreased $207,000, or 17.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in 2014 over 2013 primarily consisted of an increase in legal fees related to impaired loans, an increase in audit fees primarily related to additional services required, an increase in additional tax consultation services, and an increase in consulting fees related to strategic planning. The decrease in 2013 over 2012 was primarily a result of a decrease in litigation fees related to two legal suits incurred during 2012, and a decrease in auditing fees primarily due to nonrecurring fees incurred in 2012 for tax and fair value analysis.
Advertising and promotion decreased $27,000, or 2.1%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, and increased $218,000, or 20.1%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in 2013 over the year ended December 31, 2012 was primarily due to additional advertising projects and payment for several sponsorships and promotional items that were not incurred during 2012.
Processing expense decreased $442,000, or 12.5%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, and decreased $50,000, or 1.4% for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease in 2014 compared to 2013 and 2012 was primarily due to contract savings resulting in lower core processing expenses. In 2013 a one time consulting fee was incurred to negotiate reduced future core processing expenses. A portion of this fee is being amortized over the new contract period with the Company’s core processing vendor.
Other real estate (ORE) expense decreased $4.1 million, or 82.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, and increased $2.3 million, or 85.2%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. Net losses recognized on other real estate owned were $371,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $3.5 million and $407,000 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Expenses to maintain these foreclosed properties were $474,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $1.5 million and $2.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The significant decrease in net losses and expenses during 2014 compared to 2013 and 2012, primarily related to two hotels located in the Branson area that were sold at auction during the second quarter of 2013. The Company began to see a decrease in overall operating costs for foreclosed properties during the third quarter of 2013 due to the sale of the hotels.
Other non-interest expense decreased $414,000, or 11.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, and decreased $771,000, or 17.5%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease for the year ended December 31, 2014 primarily related to a decrease in core deposit intangible (CDI) asset amortization which became fully amortized in the second quarter of 2013, reduced levels of credit card dispute charge-offs, and a decrease in consumer loan expense primarily related to a $189,000 write-down on repossessed mining equipment during the second quarter of 2013. This decrease was partially offset by a $136,000 loss recorded due to employee fraud that management discovered during the third quarter of 2014 (see Item 9A. Controls and Procedures for further discussion). The decrease for the year ended December 31, 2013 was primarily due to a decrease in CDI amortization, a decrease in consumer loan expense primarily related to impairment write-downs, and a decrease in donations resulting from property that was donated during 2012. Impairment write-downs taken on mining equipment and classic cars, included in consumer repossessed asset and loan expenses, were $189,000 in 2013 compared to $330,000 in 2012.

Consolidated net income available to common shareholders’ increased to $2.0 million for the fourth quarter 2014 compared to $1.6 million for the third quarter 2014. Net interest income remained consistent at $10.0 million for both the fourth and third quarters of 2014 with $1.1 billion in average interest earning assets.
No provision for loan losses was required for both the fourth and third quarter of 2014 primarily due to decreases in the Company’s historical loss rates. Net charge-offs for the fourth quarter 2014 were $2.9 million, or 0.34% of average loans, compared to $117,000, or 0.01% of average loans for the third quarter 2014.
Non-interest income decreased to $2.2 million for the fourth quarter 2014 compared to $2.3 million for the third quarter of 2014. This decrease primarily resulted from a $69,000 decrease in service charges, a $52,000 decrease in net real estate servicing income, and a $15,000 decrease in gains on sale of mortgage loans. The Company’s loans sold were consistent at $11.0 million for both the fourth and third quarter of 2014. Net real estate servicing fees include mortgage loan servicing fees and the gains or losses due to the change in fair value of MSRs arising from inputs and assumptions. Mortgage loan servicing fees earned on
loans sold were $224,000 for the fourth quarter 2014 compared to $226,000 for the third quarter 2014. Total net losses recognized due to the change in fair value of MSRs arising from inputs and assumptions were $190,000 for the fourth quarter 2014 compared to $140,000 for the third quarter 2014.
Non-interest expense decreased to $9.1 million for the fourth quarter 2014 compared to $9.9 million for the third quarter 2014. This decrease primarily resulted from a $578,000 decrease in salaries, a $200,000 decrease in employee benefits, and a $173,000 decrease in other real estate expenses, partially offset by an $117,000 increase in advertising and promotion expense. Net losses recognized on other real estate owned were $76,000 for the fourth quarter 2014, compared to $274,000 for the third quarter 2014, and expenses to maintain these foreclosed properties were $112,000 for the fourth quarter 2014 compared to $87,000 for the third quarter 2014. The decrease in salary expense for the fourth quarter of 2014 over the third quarter of 2014 primarily related to an accrual for an incentive program approved by the Board of Directors in the third quarter of 2014, and the decrease in employee benefits for the fourth quarter of 2014 over the third quarter of 2014 primarily related to a decrease in the annual accrual for profit-sharing. The increases in advertising and promotion expenses were primarily due to additional marketing and promotional events that typically occur each year in December.
Comparing fourth quarter 2014 to fourth quarter 2013
Consolidated net income available to common shareholders’ increased to $2.0 million for the fourth quarter 2014 compared to $1.7 million for the fourth 2013. Net interest income remained unchanged at $10.0 million over the same period with $1.1 billion in average interest earning assets.
No provision for loan losses was required for the fourth quarter 2014 compared to $30,000 for the fourth quarter 2013, and was primarily due to decreases in the Company’s historical loss rates. Net charge-offs for the fourth quarter 2014 were $2.9 million, or 0.34% of average loans, compared to $564,000, or 0.07% of average loans for the fourth quarter 2013.
Non-interest income decreased to $2.2 million for fourth quarter 2014 compared to $2.3 million for fourth quarter of 2013. This decrease primarily resulted from a $204,000 decrease in gains on sale of investment securities, and a $82,000 decrease in net real estate servicing income, partially offset by a $165,000 increase in gain on sale of mortgage loans. Without a $129,000 increase to the Company’s servicing repurchase liability, included in total gain on sale of mortgage loans, for the fourth quarter of 2013, gain on sale of mortgage loans would have been $279,000 compared to $315,000 for the fourth quarter 2014. The Company’s loans sold were unchanged at $11.0 million for both fourth quarters 2014 and 2013. Net real estate servicing fees include mortgage loan servicing fees and the gains or losses due to the change in fair value of MSRs arising from inputs and assumptions. Mortgage loan servicing fees earned on loans sold were $224,000 for the fourth quarter 2014 compared to $227,000 for the fourth quarter 2013. Total net losses recognized due to the change in fair value of MSRs arising from inputs and assumptions were $190,000 for the fourth quarter 2014 compared to $111,000 for the fourth quarter 2013.
Non-interest expense decreased to $9.1 million for the fourth quarter 2014 compared to $9.6 million for the fourth quarter 2013. This decrease primarily resulted from a $299,000 decrease in other real estate expenses, and a $248,000 decrease in employee benefits. Net losses realized on other real estate owned were $76,000 for the fourth quarter 2014, compared to $327,000 for the fourth quarter 2013, and expenses to maintain these foreclosed properties were $112,000 for the fourth quarter 2014 compared to $160,000 for the fourth quarter 2013. These decreases in net losses and expenses primarily related to two hotels located in the Branson area that were sold at auction during the second quarter of 2013. The decrease in employee benefits for the fourth quarter of 2014 over the fourth quarter of 2013 primarily related to a decrease in the annual accrual for profit-sharing and pension expenses.
Income taxes
Income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes as reported in the consolidated financial statements were 34.6% for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to 32.8% and 16.2% for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Excluding an immaterial correction of a prior period error
of $371,000, income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes would have been 26.3% for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in the effective tax rate in 2014 is primarily due to an increase in earnings before income taxes, while tax-exempt investment income remained consistent with that for 2013 and 2012.
Lending and Credit Management
Interest earned on the loan portfolio is a primary source of interest income for the Company. Net loans represented 72.9% of total assets as of December 31, 2014 compared to 72.4% as of December 31, 2013.
Lending activities are conducted pursuant to an established loan policy approved by the Bank’s Board of Directors. The Bank’s credit review process is overseen by regional loan committees with established loan approval limits. In addition, a senior loan committee reviews all credit relationships in aggregate over an established dollar amount. The senior loan committee meets weekly and is comprised of senior managers of the Bank.

During 2014, the Company has experienced positive trends over 2013 as seen in the $13.0 million increase in Commercial, financial, and agricultural loans and the $18.1 million increase in Real estate mortgage loans. The Company benefited from Commercial borrowers more willing to expand operations, and new calling programs resulted in new customers and expanded loan relationships with existing customers. The Company extends credit to its local community market through traditional real estate mortgage products. The Company does not participate in extending credit to sub-prime residential real estate markets. The Company does not lend funds for the type of transactions defined as “highly leveraged” by bank regulatory authorities or for foreign loans. Additionally, the Company does not have any concentrations of loans exceeding 10% of total loans that are not otherwise disclosed in the loan portfolio composition table. The Company does not have any interest-earning assets that would have been included in nonaccrual, past due, or restructured loans if such assets were loans.
The contractual maturities of loan categories at December 31, 2014, and the composition of those loans between fixed rate and floating rate loans are as follows:

The Company generally does not retain long-term fixed rate residential mortgage loans in its portfolio. Fixed rate loans conforming to standards required by the secondary market are offered to qualified borrowers, but are not funded until the Company has a non-recourse purchase commitment from the secondary market at a predetermined price. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company sold approximately $36.6 million of loans to investors compared to $76.0 million and $99.8 million for the years December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. At December 31, 2014, the Company was servicing approximately $313.9 million of loans sold to the secondary market compared to $322.5 million at December 31, 2013, and $310.6 million at December 31, 2012.
Risk Elements of the Loan Portfolio
Management, the senior loan committee, and internal loan review, formally review all loans in excess of certain dollar amounts (periodically established) at least annually. Currently, loans in excess of $2.0 million in aggregate and all adversely classified credits identified by management are reviewed. In addition, all other loans are reviewed on a sample basis. The senior loan committee reviews and reports to the board of directors, on a monthly basis, past due, classified, and watch list loans in order to classify or reclassify loans as loans requiring attention, substandard, doubtful, or loss. During this review, management also determines which loans should be considered impaired. Management follows the guidance provided in the FASB’s ASC Topic 310, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, in identifying and measuring loan impairment. If management determines that it is probable that all amounts due on a loan will not be collected under the original terms of the loan agreement, the loan is considered to be impaired. These loans are evaluated individually for impairment, and in conjunction with current economic conditions and loss experience, specific reserves are estimated as further discussed below. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type, delinquencies, current economic conditions, loan risk ratings and industry concentration. Management believes, but there can be no assurance, that these procedures keep management informed of potential problem loans. Based upon these procedures, both the allowance and provision for loan losses are adjusted to maintain the allowance at a level considered necessary by management to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

Total nonperforming assets totaled $47.9 million at December 31, 2014 compared to $50.2 million at December 31, 2013. 2014. Nonperforming loans, defined as loans on non-accrual status, loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing, and TDRs totaled $36.0 million, or 4.18%, of total loans at December 31, 2014 compared to $35.3 million, or 4.21%, of total loans at December 31, 2013. Non-accrual loans included $1.6 million and $10.1 million of loans classified as TDRs at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
It is the Company’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income on loans when management believes that the borrower’s financial condition, after consideration of business conditions and collection efforts, is such that the collection of interest is doubtful, or upon which principal or interest due has been in default for a period of 90 days or more and the asset is not both well secured and in the process of collection. Subsequent interest payments received on such loans are applied to principal if any doubt exists as to the collectability of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as interest income on a cash basis. Contractual interest lost on loans in non-accrual status, was approximately $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $1.2 million for both the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.
As of December 31, 2014, approximately $9.6 million compared to $21.0 million at December 31, 2013, of loans classified as substandard, not included in the nonperforming asset table, were identified as potential problem loans having more than normal risk which raised doubts as to the ability of the borrower
to comply with present loan repayment terms. Even though borrowers are experiencing moderate cash flow problems as well as some deterioration in collateral value, management believes the general allowance was sufficient to cover the risks and probable losses related to such loans at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
Total non-accrual loans at December 31, 2014 decreased $5.4 million to $18.2 million compared to $23.7 million at December 31, 2013. This decrease primarily consisted of a $4.3 million decrease in real estate mortgage non-accrual loans and a $4.6 million decrease in real estate construction loans. The decrease in non-accrual loans primarily resulted from $2.0 million transferred to other real estate owned and reposed assets, and $3.3 million of charge-offs taken related to non-accrual loans with specific reserves. This decrease was partially offset by a $3.6 million increase in commercial, financial, and agricultural non-accrual loans. At December 31, 2014, commercial, financial, and agricultural non-accrual loans made up 29% of total non-accrual loans compared to 7% at December 31, 2013.
Loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest at December 31, 2014, were $58,000 compared to $243,000 at December 31, 2013. Other real estate owned and repossessed assets at December 31, 2014 of $11.9 million compared to $14.9 million at December 31, 2013. During the year ended December 31, 2014, $2.0 million of nonaccrual loans, net of charge-offs taken, were transferred to other real estate owned and repossessed assets, and a net $585,000 additional provision to the valuation allowance was recorded to reflect current fair values. This compared to $4.6 million of nonaccrual loans, net of charge-offs taken, transferred to other real estate owned and repossessed assets, and a net $3.4 million additional provision during the year ended December 31, 2013. The provision during 2013 primarily related to two hotels located in the Branson area that were sold during the second quarter.

At December 31, 2014, loans classified as TDRs totaled $19.3 million, of which $1.6 million were on non-accrual status and $17.7 million were on accrual status, compared to $21.5 million of loans classified as TDRs, of which $10.1 million were on non-accrual status and $11.4 million were on accrual status at December 31, 2013. The net decrease in total TDRs from December 31, 2013 was primarily due to $9.8 million of additions to TDRs that were offset by $1.5 million charged off and approximately $10.4 million of payments received during 2014. Approximately $7.0 million of the decrease in TDRs on non-accrual status from December 31, 2013 was due to loans that transferred to accruing TDR status during the year ended December 31, 2014.
Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses
The Company is continuing to recover from the deterioration of collateral values during the recent periods of unfavorable economic conditions. The allowance for loan losses was $9.1 million, or 1.06%, of loans outstanding at December 31, 2014, compared to $13.7 million, or 1.63%, of loans outstanding at December 31, 2013, and $14.8 million, or 1.75%, of loans outstanding at December 31, 2012. The decrease in the allowance for loan losses coverage ratio from December 31, 2013 to December 31, 2014 is primarily due to charging off the specific reserves on certain impaired loans leading to the decline in specific reserves at December 31, 2014 compared to the prior year ends. See further discussion below.

Net Loan Charge-offs
The Company’s net loan charge-offs were $4.6 million, or 0.54% of average loans, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to net loan charge-offs of $3.2 million, or 0.38% of average loans, for the year ended December 31, 2013, and $7.9 million, or 0.93% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2012. As detailed above, net charge offs for 2014 increased by $1.5 million over 2014 primarily due to $2.7 million of charge offs related to six impaired loan relationships with specific reserves that management determined to be uncollectable. The deterioration of credit quality impacted by economic conditions in previous years that led to heighted net charge offs recognized peaked in 2010 and has decreased significantly in the following years.
Provision
No provision was required for the year ended December 31, 2014 due to decreases in historical loss rates based on the Company’s last thirty-six months of charge-off experience. This is compared to $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 and $8.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012.

The Company’s allowance for loan losses decreased to $9.1 million at December 31, 2014 compared to $13.7 million at December 31, 2013. The decrease from December 31, 2013 primarily consisted of a $3.1 million decrease in the allocation for real estate mortgage loans due to charging off $3.3 million of specific reserves, which $2.7 million related to six loan relationships that management deemed uncollectable. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans, excluding TDR’s – accruing, was 49.72% at December 31, 2014, compared to 57.4% at December 31, 2013.
The following table is a summary of the general and specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses:

The specific reserve component applies to loans evaluated individually for impairment. The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals and/or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. Once the impairment amount is calculated, a specific reserve allocation is recorded. At December 31, 2014, $1.7 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses was allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $36.0 million compared to $4.8 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses (ALL) allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $35.1 million at December 31, 2013. Management determined that $28.5 million, or 79%, of total impaired loans required no reserve allocation at December 31, 2014 compared to $18.8 million, or 54%, at December 31, 2013 primarily due to adequate collateral values, acceptable payment history and adequate cash flow ability.
The incurred loss component of the general reserve, or loans collectively evaluated for impairment, is determined by applying percentages to pools of loans by asset type. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated by risk characteristics and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type, delinquencies, current economic conditions, loan risk ratings, and industry concentration adjusted for certain qualitative factors to reflect current risk characteristics of the portfolio. In addition, the combined historical loan loss rates and qualitative factors are multiplied by loss emergence periods (LEP) which represent the estimated time period between a borrower first experiencing financial difficulty and the recognition of a loss. Management determined that the previous twelve quarters were reflective of the loss characteristics of the Company’s loan portfolio during the recent economic environment. These historical loss rates for each risk group are used as the starting point to determine allowance provisions. The Company’s methodology includes qualitative factors that allow management to adjust its estimates of losses based on the most recent information available. These factors
reflect actual changes and anticipated changes such as changes in specific allowances on loans and real estate acquired through foreclosure, any gains and losses on final disposition of real estate acquired through foreclosure, changes in national and local economic conditions and developments, including general economic and business conditions affecting the Company’s key lending areas, credit quality trends, specific industry conditions within portfolio segments, bank regulatory examination results, and findings of the internal loan review department. These risk factors are generally reviewed and updated quarterly, as appropriate.
Loss Emergence Periods While the historical loss rates and qualitative factors (discussed above) provide a good foundation as to the incurred losses in the current portfolio, the portfolio is comprised of very unique loan categories that inherently may need more time to produce a loss than other loan categories (given these unique segments and workout periods). As such, a review of the Company’s LEP is necessary to ensure the ALL estimate is appropriately stated as of the balance sheet date, rather than relying on a singular annualized loss rate based upon the historical charge-off activity. Determination of the LEP allows for loans with effective useful lives longer than twelve months, often loans with extended workout periods, to be incorporated into the reserve estimate, given the incurred loss event had occurred prior to the balance sheet date. This approach is consistent with the Interagency ALL Guidance noted above.
The specific and general reserve allocations represent management’s best estimate of probable losses contained in the loan portfolio at the evaluation date. Although the allowance for loan losses is comprised of specific and general allocations, the entire allowance is available to absorb any credit losses.
Investment Portfolio
The Company classifies its debt and equity securities into one of the following two categories:
Held-to-Maturity includes investments in debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity. Available-for-Sale - includes investments in debt and equity securities not classified as held to maturity or trading (i.e., investments that the Company has no present plans to sell in the near-term but may be sold in the future under different circumstances). The Company’s investment portfolio consists of available-for-sale securities.
Debt securities classified as held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost, while debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at estimated market value. Unrealized holding gains and losses from available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported, net of applicable taxes, as a separate component of stockholders’ equity until realized.
The Company does not engage in trading activities and accordingly does not have any debt or equity securities classified as trading securities. Historically the Company’s practice had been to purchase and hold debt instruments until maturity unless special circumstances exist. However, since the investment portfolio’s major function is to provide liquidity and to balance the Company’s interest rate sensitivity position, all debt securities are classified as available-for-sale.
At December 31, 2014, the investment portfolio classified as available-for-sale represented 17.0% of total consolidated assets. Future levels of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale investment securities can be expected to vary depending upon liquidity and interest sensitivity needs as well as other factors.

Asset-backed securities have been included using historic repayment speeds. Repayment speeds were determined from actual portfolio experience during the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 calculated separately for each mortgage-backed security. These repayment speeds are not necessarily indicative of future repayment speeds and are subject to change based on changing mortgage interest rates.
2)
Rates on obligations of states and political subdivisions have been adjusted to fully taxable equivalent rates using the statutory federal income tax rate of 34%.
At December 31, 2014 $10,500 of debt securities classified as available-for-sale in the table above had variable rate provisions with adjustment periods ranging from one week to twelve months.
The following non-marketable securities are restricted securities which, lacking a market, are carried at cost. These securities are reported in other assets. At December 31, 2014, $3.1 million of the total included Federal Home Loan Bank (Des Moines) stock held by the Bank in accordance with debt and regulatory requirements. Other non-marketable securities include a $1.5 million equity investment in the Company’s unconsolidated Exchange Statutory Trusts. See Note 8 to the Company’s consolidated financials for further explanation of the Exchange Statutory Trusts.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity Management
The role of liquidity management is to ensure funds are available to meet depositors’ withdrawal and borrowers’ credit demands while at the same time maximizing profitability. This is accomplished by balancing changes in demand for funds with changes in the supply of those funds. Liquidity to meet the demands is provided by maturing assets, short-term liquid assets that can be converted to cash and the ability to attract funds from external sources, principally depositors. Due to the nature of services offered by the Company, management prefers to focus on transaction accounts and full service relationships with customers. Management believes it has the ability to increase deposits at any time by offering rates slightly higher than the market rate.
The Company’s Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO), primarily made up of senior management, has direct oversight responsibility for the Company’s liquidity position and profile. A combination of daily, weekly, and monthly reports provided to management detail the following: internal liquidity metrics, composition and level of the liquid asset portfolio, timing differences in short-term cash flow obligations, available pricing and market access to the financial markets for capital, and exposure to contingent draws on the Company’s liquidity.
The Company has a number of sources of funds to meet liquidity needs on a daily basis. The Company’s most liquid assets are comprised of available for sale investment securities, federal funds sold, and excess reserves held at the Federal Reserve Bank.

Federal funds sold and resale agreements normally have overnight maturities and are used for general daily liquidity purposes. The fair value of the available for sale investment portfolio was $206.0 million at December 31, 2014 and included an unrealized net loss of $2.4 million. The portfolio includes projected maturities and mortgage backed securities pay-downs of approximately $7.5 million over the next twelve months, which offer resources to meet either new loan demand or reductions in the Company’s deposit base.
The Company pledges portions of its investment securities portfolio to secure public fund deposits, federal funds purchase lines, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank, and for other purposes required by law. The Company’s unpledged securities in the available for sale portfolio totaled approximately $53.4 million and $60.2 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Total investment securities pledged for these purposes were as follows:

Liquidity is available from the Company’s base of core customer deposits, defined as demand, interest checking, savings, and money market deposit accounts. At December 31, 2014, such deposits totaled $649.7 million and represented 67.0% of the Company’s total deposits. These core deposits are normally less volatile and are often tied to other products of the Company through long lasting relationships. Time deposits and certificates of deposit of $100,000 and over totaled $319.7 million at December 31, 2014. These accounts are normally considered more volatile and higher costing representing 33.0% of total deposits at December 31, 2014.

Other components of liquidity are the level of borrowings from third party sources and the availability of future credit. The Company’s outside borrowings are comprised of securities sold under agreements to repurchase, Federal Home Loan Bank advances, and subordinated notes. Federal funds purchased are overnight borrowings obtained mainly from upstream correspondent banks with which the Company maintains approved credit lines. As of December 31, 2014, under agreements with these unaffiliated banks, the Bank may borrow up to $40.0 million in federal funds on an unsecured basis and $7.8 million on a secured basis. There were no federal funds purchased outstanding at December 31, 2014. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are generally borrowed overnight and are secured by a portion of the
Company’s investment portfolio. At December 31, 2014, there was $17.9 million in repurchase agreements. The Company may periodically borrow additional short-term funds from the Federal Reserve Bank through the discount window; although no such borrowings were outstanding at December 31, 2014.
The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB). As a member of the FHLB, the Bank has access to credit products of the FHLB. As of December 31, 2014, the Bank had $43.0 million in outstanding borrowings with the FHLB. In addition, the Company has $49.5 million at December 31, 2014 in outstanding subordinated notes issued to wholly-owned grantor trusts, funded by preferred securities issued by the trusts.

At December 31, 2014, loans with a market value of $405.5 million were pledged to the Federal Home Loan Bank as collateral for borrowings and letters of credit. At December 31, 2014, investments with a market value of $8.6 million were pledged to secure federal funds purchase lines and borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank.
Sources and Uses of Funds
Cash and cash equivalents were $42.8 million at December 31, 2014 compared to $28.4 million at December 31, 2013. The $17.9 million increase resulted from changes in the various cash flows produced by operating, investing, and financing activities of the Company, as shown in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2014. Cash flow provided from operating activities consists mainly of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items. Operating activities provided cash flow of $13.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Investing activities consisting mainly of purchases, sales and maturities of available for sale securities, and changes in the level of the loan portfolio, used total cash of $17.1 million. The cash outflow primarily consisted of $48.9 million purchases of investment securities and a $28.4 million increase in the loan portfolio, partially offset by $52.3 million in proceeds from investment maturities, calls, and pay-downs, $5.3 million in proceeds from sales of investment securities, and $4.6 million in proceeds received from sales of other real estate owned and repossessed assets.
Financing activities provided cash of $17.9 million, resulting primarily from a $20.3 million increase in demand deposits, $23.0 million increase in interest-bearing transaction accounts, and a $19.0 million net advance from Federal Home Loan Bank. These increases were partially offset by a $30.2 million decrease in time deposits, and a $13.1 million decrease in federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase. Future short-term liquidity needs arising from daily operations are not expected to vary significantly during 2015.
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into certain forms of off-balance-sheet transactions, including unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit. These transactions are managed through the Company’s various risk management processes. Management considers both on-balance sheet and off-balance-sheet transactions in its evaluation of the Company’s liquidity. The Company had $138.4 million in unused loan commitments and standby letters of credit as of December 31, 2014. Although the Company’s current liquidity resources are adequate to fund this commitment level, the nature of these commitments is such that the likelihood of such a funding demand is very low.
The Company is a legal entity, separate and distinct from the Bank, which must provide its own liquidity to meet its operating needs. The Company’s ongoing liquidity needs primarily include funding its operating expenses and paying cash dividends to its shareholders. The Company paid cash dividends to its common and preferred shareholders totaling approximately $1.0 and $1.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. A large portion of the Company’s liquidity is obtained from the Bank in the form of dividends. The Bank declared and paid $2.5 million and $15.0 million in dividends to the Company during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $1.0 million and $450,000, respectively.
Capital Management
The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification of the Company and the Bank are subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier I capital to adjusted-average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company and the Bank each met all capital adequacy requirements.
In July 2013, the federal banking agencies issued final rules to implement the Basel III regulatory capital reforms and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. The phase-in period for community banking organizations began on January 1, 2015, while larger institutions (generally those with assets of $250 billion or more) were required to begin compliance on January 1, 2014. The final rules call for the following capital requirements:
•
A minimum ratio of common tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5%.
•
A minimum ratio of tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6%.
•
A minimum leverage ratio of 4%.
In addition, the final rules establish a common equity tier 1 capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets applicable to all banking organizations. If a banking organization fails to hold capital above the minimum capital ratios and the capital conservation buffer, it will be subject to certain restrictions on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments. The phase-in period for the capital conservation and countercyclical capital buffers for all banking organizations will begin on January 1, 2016.
Under the proposed rules previously issued by the federal banking agencies, accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) would have been included in a banking organization’s common equity tier 1 capital. The final rules allow community banks to make a one-time election not to include these new AOCI
components in regulatory capital and instead use the existing treatment under the general risk-based capital rules that excludes most AOCI components from regulatory capital. The opt-out election must be made in the first call report or FR Y-9 series report that is filed after the financial institution becomes subject to the final rule.
The final rules permanently grandfather non-qualifying capital instruments (such as trust preferred securities and cumulative perpetual preferred stock) issued before May 19, 2010 for inclusion in the tier 1 capital of banking organizations began with total consolidated assets less than $15 billion as of December 31, 2009 and banking organizations that were mutual holding companies as of May 19, 2010.
The Company has assessed the impact of these changes and it does not expect there to be a material impact on the regulatory ratios of the Company and the Bank and on the capital, operations and earnings of the Company and the Bank.
The Company exceeded all capital adequacy requirements as of December 31, for the years indicated:

In the normal course of business, the Company is party to activities that contain credit, market and operational risk that are not reflected in whole or in part in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Such activities include traditional off-balance-sheet credit related financial instruments.
The Company provides customers with off-balance-sheet credit support through loan commitments and standby letters of credit. Summarized credit-related financial instruments, including both commitments to extend credit and letters of credit at December 31, 2014 are as follows:

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Sensitivity
Market risk arises from exposure to changes in interest rates and other relevant market rate or price risk. The Company faces market risk in the form of interest rate risk through transactions other than trading activities. The Company uses financial modeling techniques to measure interest rate risk. These techniques measure the sensitivity of future earnings due to changing interest rate environments. Guidelines established by the Company’s Asset/Liability Committee and approved by the board of directors are used to monitor exposure of earnings at risk. General interest rate movements are used to develop sensitivity as the Company feels it has no primary exposure to specific points on the yield curve. At December 31, 2014, the rate shock scenario models indicated that annual net interest income could change by as much as -18.3% to +25.5% should interest rates rise or fall, respectively, 400 basis points from their current level over a one year period. However, there are no assurances that the change will not be more or less than this estimate. Management believes this is an acceptable level of risk.
The following table represents estimated interest rate sensitivity and periodic and cumulative gap positions calculated as of December 31, 2014. Significant assumptions used for this table included: loans will repay at historic repayment rates; certain interest-bearing demand accounts are interest sensitive due to immediate repricing, and fixed maturity deposits will not be withdrawn prior to maturity. A significant variance in actual results from one or more of these assumptions could materially affect the results reflected in the table.

Effects of Inflation
The effects of inflation on financial institutions are different from the effects on other commercial enterprises since financial institutions make few significant capital or inventory expenditures, which are directly affected by changing prices. Because bank assets and liabilities are virtually all monetary in nature, inflation does not affect a financial institution as much as do changes in interest rates. The general level of
inflation does underlie the general level of most interest rates, but interest rates do not increase at the rate of inflation as do prices of goods and services. Rather, interest rates react more to changes in the expected rate of inflation and to changes in monetary and fiscal policy.
Inflation does have an impact on the growth of total assets in the banking industry, often resulting in a need to increase capital at higher than normal rates to maintain an appropriate capital to asset ratio. In the opinion of management, inflation did not have a significant effect on the Company’s operations for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Impact of New Accounting Standards
Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures The FASB issued ASU No. 2014-01, Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects, in January 2014. These amendments allow investors in low income housing tax credit entities to account for the investments using a proportional amortization method, provided that certain conditions are met, and recognize amortization of the investment as a component of income tax expense. In addition, disclosures are required that will enable users to understand the nature of the investments, and the effect of the measurement of the investments and the related tax credits on the investor’s financial statements. This ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2015 and should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The adoption will not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors
The FASB issued ASU No. 2014-04, Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure, in January 2014. These amendments require companies to disclose the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held and the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings are in process according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. The ASU also defines when a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2015. The adoption will not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The FASB has issued ASU No. 2014-14, Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure in August 2014. The objective of this update is to reduce diversity in practice by addressing the classification of foreclosed mortgage loans that are fully or partially guaranteed under government programs, including those guaranteed by the FHA and the VA. Some creditors reclassify those loans to real estate consistent with other foreclosed loans that do not have guarantees; others reclassify the loans to other receivables. The amendments in this ASU require that a mortgage loan be derecognized and that a separate other receivable be recognized upon foreclosure if the following conditions are met: (1) The loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure; (2) At the time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make a claim on the guarantee, and the creditor has the ability to recover under that claim; and (3) At the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate is fixed. Upon foreclosure, the separate other receivable should be measured based on the amount of the loan balance (principal and interest) expected to be recovered from the guarantor. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption will not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Revenue from Contracts with Customers The FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, in May 2014. The ASU supersedes revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance identifies specific steps that entities should apply in order to achieve this principle. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2017 and must be applied retrospectively. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the ASU’s adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Transfers and Servicing The FASB issued ASU 2014-11, Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures, in June 2014. The amendments require that repurchase-to-maturity transactions and repurchase agreements that are part of financing arrangements be accounted for as secured borrowings. The amendments also require additional disclosures for certain transfers accounted for as sales. The accounting changes and the disclosures on sales are required to be presented in interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2015. The ASU also requires disclosures about types of collateral, contractual tenor and potential risks for transactions accounted for as secured borrowings. These disclosures are required in interim and annual periods beginning April 1, 2015. The adoption is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern Uncertainties. The FASB has issued ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern in August 2014. ASU 2014-15 is intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), financial statements are prepared under the presumption that the reporting organization will continue to operate as a going concern, except in limited circumstances. Financial reporting under this presumption is commonly referred to as the going concern basis of accounting. The going concern basis of accounting is critical to financial reporting because it establishes the fundamental basis for measuring and classifying assets and liabilities. Currently, GAAP lacks guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the organization’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. This ASU provides guidance to an organization’s management, with principles and definitions that are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of disclosures that are commonly provided by organizations today in the financial statement footnotes. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. The adoption is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following consolidated financial statements of the Company and report of the Company’s independent auditors appear on the pages indicated.
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2014. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2014, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (1992), issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated March 31, 2015 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting.

HAWTHORN BANCSHARES, INC.
AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012
(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. (the Company) through its subsidiary, Hawthorn Bank (the Bank), provides a broad range of banking services to individual and corporate customers located within the communities in and surrounding Jefferson City, Columbia, Clinton, Warsaw, Springfield, Branson, and Lee’s Summit, Missouri. The Company is subject to competition from other financial and nonfinancial institutions providing financial products. Additionally, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to the regulations of certain regulatory agencies and undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory agencies.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). The preparation of the consolidated financial statements includes all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary in order to make those statements not misleading. Management is required to make estimates and assumptions, including the determination of the allowance for loan losses, real estate acquired in connection with foreclosure or in satisfaction of loans, and fair values of investment securities available-for-sale 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 differ from those estimates. The Company’s management has evaluated and did not identify any subsequent events or transactions requiring recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.
During the third quarter of, 2014, the Company’s management discovered employee fraud resulting in the loss of an aggregate $421,000 of cash over an extended period of time. As a result of the discovery, the Company recorded a $136,000 loss in its consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2014, representing the $421,000 gross loss, net of expected insurance proceeds of $285,000. The Company determined that any adjustments relating to prior-period financial statements were immaterial
Stock Dividend On July 1, 2014, the Company paid a special stock dividend of four percent to common shareholders of record at the close of business on June 15, 2014. For all periods presented, share information, including basic and diluted earnings per share, has been adjusted retroactively to reflect this change.
Preferred Stock On December 19, 2008, the Company announced its participation in the U.S. Treasury Department’s Capital Purchase Program (CPP), a voluntary program that provides capital to financially healthy banks. Participation in this program included the Company’s issuance of 30,255 shares of senior preferred stock (with a par value of $1,000 per share) and a ten year warrant to purchase approximately 287,133 shares of common stock. On May 9, 2012, the Company redeemed 12,000 of the 30,255 shares of preferred stock issued under the U.S. Treasury’s CPP program for a total purchase price of $12.1 million, and on May 15, 2013, the remaining 18,255 shares were redeemed for a total purchase price of $18.5 million.
On June 11, 2013, the common stock warrant issued under the U.S. Treasury Department’s CPP program was repurchased by the Company for a total purchase price of $540,000, or $1.88 per warrant share. The purchase price was based on the fair market value of the warrant as agreed upon by the Company and the Treasury. The repurchase of the warrant ended the Company’s participation in the U.S. Treasury Department’s CPP.
The significant accounting policies used by the Company in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are summarized below:
Principles of Consolidation
In December of 2008 and March of 2010, the Company formed Hawthorn Real Estate, LLC, and Real Estate Holdings of Missouri, LLC, respectively (the Real Estate Companies); both are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company,

AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012
Hawthorn Bank (the Bank), and the Real Estate Companies. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Loans
Loans that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or maturity are held for investment at their stated unpaid principal balance amount less unearned income and the allowance for loan losses. Income on loans is accrued on a simple-interest basis. Loan origination fees and certain direct costs are deferred and recognized over the life of the loan as an adjustment to yield.
Loans Held for Sale
The Bank originates certain loans, which are sold in the secondary market. These long-term, fixed rate loans are typically classified as held for sale upon origination based on management’s intent to sell and are accounted for at the lower of adjusted cost or fair value. Adjusted cost reflects the funded loan amount and any loan origination costs and fees. In order to manage the risk associated with such activities, the Company upon locking in an interest rate with the borrower enters into an agreement to sell such loans in the secondary market. Loans held for sale are typically sold with servicing rights retained and without recourse except for normal and customary representation and warranty provisions. At December 31, 2014, there were no mortgage loans that were held for sale in comparison to $95,882 loans held for sale at December 31, 2013.
Impaired Loans
A loan is considered impaired when it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due, both principal and interest, according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Included in impaired loans are all non-accrual loans and loans whose terms have been modified in a troubled debt restructuring. Impaired loans are individually evaluated for impairment based on fair values of the underlying collateral, obtained through independent appraisals or internal valuations for a collateral dependent loan or by discounting the total expected future cash flows.
Non-Accrual Loans
Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when management believes that the borrower’s financial condition, after consideration of business conditions and collection efforts, is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Loans that are contractually 90 days past due as to principal and/or interest payments are generally placed on non-accrual, unless they are both well-secured and in the process of collection. Subsequent interest payments received on such loans are applied to principal if doubt exists as to the collectability of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as interest income on a cash basis. A loan remains on nonaccrual status until the loan is current as to payment of both principal and interest and/or the borrower demonstrates the ability to pay and remain current.
Restructured Loans
A modified or restructured loan is accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) for any loans in which concessions are made to the borrower for economic or legal reasons that the Company would not otherwise consider and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. A loan classified as a TDR will generally retain such classification until the loan is paid in full. Non-accrual TDRs are returned to accruing status once the borrower demonstrates the ability to pay under the terms of the restructured note through a sustained period of repayment performance, which is generally six months. The Company includes all accruing and non-accruing TDRs in the impaired and non-performing asset totals. TDRs are measured for impairment loss by using fair values of the underlying collateral obtained through independent appraisals and internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows.

Allowance for Loan Losses
Management has identified the accounting policy related to the allowance for loan losses as critical to the understanding of the Company’s results of operations, since the application of this policy requires significant management assumptions and estimates that could result in materially different amounts to be reported if conditions or underlying circumstances were to change. Many of the loans are deemed collateral dependent for purposes of the measurement of the impairment loss, thus the fair value of the underlying collateral and sensitivity of such fair values due to changing market conditions, supply and demand, condition of the collateral and other factors can be volatile over periods of time. Such volatility can have an impact on the financial performance of the Company.
Loans, or portions of loans, are charged off to the extent deemed uncollectible or a loss is confirmed. When loans become 90 days past due, they are generally placed on nonaccrual status or charged off unless extenuating circumstances justify leaving the loan on accrual basis. When loans reach 120 days past due and there is little likelihood of repayment, they are charged off. Loan charge-offs reduce the allowance for loan losses, and recoveries of loans previously charged off are added back to the allowance. If management determines that it is probable that all amounts due on a loan will not be collected under the original terms of the loan agreement, the loan is considered to be impaired. These loans are evaluated individually for impairment, and in conjunction with current economic conditions and loss experience, specific reserves are estimated. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated by risk characteristics and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type, delinquencies, current economic conditions, loan risk ratings, and industry concentration adjusted for certain qualitative factors to reflect current risk characteristics of the portfolio. In addition, the combined historical loan loss rates and qualitative factors are multiplied by loss emergence periods which represent the estimated time period between a borrower first experiencing financial difficulty and the recognition of a potential loss. Although the allowance for loan losses are comprised of specific and general allocations, the entire allowance is available to absorb credit losses.
The specific reserve component applies to loans evaluated individually for impairment. The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals and/or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. Once the impairment amount is calculated, a specific reserve allocation is recorded. The incurred loss component of the general reserve, or loans collectively evaluated for impairment, is determined by applying loss rates to pools of loans by asset type. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated by risk characteristics and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type, delinquencies, current economic conditions, loan risk ratings, and industry concentration adjusted for certain qualitative factors to reflect current risk characteristics of the portfolio. In addition, the combined historical loan loss rates and qualitative factors are multiplied by loss emergence periods (LEP) which represent the estimated time period between a borrower first experiencing financial difficulty and the recognition of a loss. Management determined that the previous twelve quarters were reflective of the loss characteristics of the Company’s loan portfolio during the recent economic environment. These historical loss rates for each risk group are used as the starting point to determine loss rates for measurement purposes. The Company’s methodology includes qualitative factors that allow management to adjust its estimates of losses based on the most recent information available. These factors reflect actual changes and anticipated changes such as changes in specific allowances on loans and real estate acquired through foreclosure, any gains and losses on final disposition of real estate acquired through foreclosure, changes in national and local economic conditions and developments, including general economic and business conditions affecting the Company’s key lending areas, credit quality trends, specific industry conditions within portfolio segments, bank regulatory examination results, and findings of the internal loan review department. These risk factors are generally reviewed and updated quarterly, as appropriate.

Investment in Debt and Equity Securities
At the time of purchase, debt securities are classified into one of two categories: available-for-sale or held-to-maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity. All debt securities not classified as held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale. The Company’s securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. Changes in fair value, excluding certain losses associated with other-than-temporary impairment, are reported in other comprehensive income, net of taxes, a component of stockholders’ equity. Securities are periodically evaluated for other-than-temporary impairment in accordance with guidance provided in the FASB ASC Topic 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities. For those securities with other-than-temporary impairment, the entire loss in fair value is required to be recognized in current earnings if the Company intends to sell the securities or believes it more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before the anticipated recovery. If neither condition is met, but the Company does not expect to recover the amortized cost basis, the Company determines whether a credit loss has occurred, which is then recognized in current earnings. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to all other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income.
Premiums and discounts are amortized using the interest method over the lives of the respective securities, with consideration of historical and estimated prepayment rates for mortgage-backed securities, as an adjustment to yield. Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned. Realized gains and losses for securities classified as available-for-sale are included in earnings based on the specific identification method for determining the cost of securities sold.
Capital Stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank
The Bank, as a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System administered by the Federal Housing Finance Agency, is required to maintain an investment in the capital stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB) in an amount equal to 12 basis points of the Bank’s year-end total assets plus 4.00% of advances from the FHLB to the Bank. These investments are recorded at cost, which represents redemption value.
Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation applicable to buildings and improve-ments and furniture and equipment is charged to expense using straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Such lives are estimated to be 5 to 40 years for buildings and improvements and 3 to 15 years for furniture and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
Core Deposit Intangibles
Intangible assets that have finite useful lives, such as core deposit intangibles, are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Core deposit intangibles are amortized over periods of 7 to 8 years representing their estimated lives using straight line and accelerated methods.
When facts and circumstances indicate potential impairment of amortizable intangible assets, the Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying value based upon future cash flows expected to result from the use of the underlying asset and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying value of the underlying asset, the Company recognizes an impairment loss. The impairment loss recognized represents the amount by which the carrying value of the underlying asset exceeds the fair value of the underlying asset.

Mortgage Servicing Rights
The Company originates and sells residential mortgage loans in the secondary market and may retain the right to service the loans sold. Servicing involves the collection of payments from individual borrowers and the distribution of those payments to the investors or master servicer. Upon a sale of mortgage loans for which servicing rights are retained, the retained mortgage servicing rights asset is capitalized at the fair value of future net cash flows expected to be realized for performing servicing activities.
Mortgage servicing rights do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices. The Company determines the fair value of mortgage servicing rights by estimating the fair value of the future cash flows associated with the mortgage loans being serviced. Key economic assumptions used in measuring the fair value of mortgage servicing rights include, but are not limited to, prepayment speeds, discount rates, delinquencies, ancillary income, and cost to service. These assumptions are validated on a periodic basis. The fair value is validated on a quarterly basis with an independent third party valuation specialist firm.
On January 1, 2012, the Company opted to measure mortgage servicing rights at fair value as permitted by Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 860-50, Accounting for Servicing Financial Assets. The election of this option resulted in the recognition of a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $459,890, which was recorded as an increase to beginning retained earnings. As such, effective January 1, 2012, changes in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights have been recognized in real estate servicing fees, net in non-interest income in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income in the period in which the change occurred.
In addition to the changes in fair value of the mortgage servicing rights, the Company also recorded loan servicing fee income as part of real estate servicing fees, net in the statement of income. Loan servicing fee income represents revenue earned for servicing mortgage loans. The servicing fees are based on contractual percentage of the outstanding principal balance and recognized as revenue as the related mortgage payments are collected. Corresponding loan servicing costs are changed to expense as incurred.
Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets
Other real estate owned and repossessed assets consist of loan collateral that has been repossessed through foreclosure. This collateral is comprised of commercial and residential real estate and other non-real estate property, including autos, manufactured homes, and construction equipment. Other real estate owned assets are initially recorded as held for sale at the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Any adjustment is recorded as a charge-off against the allowance for loan losses. The Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by internal staff. In the case of non-real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety of sources, including external estimates of value and judgment based on experience and expertise of internal specialists. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the assets may be written down to reflect a new cost basis. The write-downs are recorded as other real estate expense. The Company establishes a valuation allowance related to other real estate owned on an asset-by-asset basis. The valuation allowance is created during the holding period when the fair value less cost to sell is lower than the cost of the property.
Pension Plan
The Company provides a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan for all full-time employees. The benefits are based on age, years of service and the level of compensation during the employees highest ten years of compensation before retirement. Net periodic costs are recognized as employees render the services necessary to earn the retirement benefits. The Company records annual amounts relating to its pension plan based on calculations that incorporate various actuarial and other assumptions including discount rates, mortality, assumed rates of return, compensation increases, and turnover rates. The Company reviews its

assumptions on an annual basis and may make modifications to the assumptions based on current rates and trends when it is appropriate to do so. The Company believes that the assumptions utilized in recording its obligations under its plan are reasonable based on its experience and market conditions.
The Company follows authoritative guidance included in the FASB ASC Topic 715, Compensation – Retirement Plans under the subtopic Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans. ASC Topic 715 requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its consolidated balance sheet and to recognize changes in the funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. This guidance also requires an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its fiscal year-end, with limited exceptions. Additional disclosures are required to provide users with an understanding of how investment allocation decisions are made, major categories of plan assets, and fair value measurement of plan assets as defined in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset / liability method by recognizing the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current period and deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. Judgment is required in addressing the Company’s future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns such as realization of the effects of temporary differences, net operating loss carry forwards and changes in tax laws or interpretations thereof. A valuation allowance is established when in the judgment of management, it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not become realizable. In this case, the Company would adjust the recorded value of our deferred tax asset, which would result in a direct charge to income tax expense in the period that the determination was made. Likewise, the Company would reverse the valuation allowance when it is expected to realize the deferred tax asset. The Company has not recognized any tax liabilities or any interest or penalties in income tax expense related to uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012.
Trust Department
Property held by the Bank in a fiduciary or agency capacity for customers is not included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, since such items are not assets of the Company. Trust department income is recognized on the accrual basis.
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
For the purpose of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of short-term federal funds sold and securities sold or purchased under agreements to resell, interest earning deposits with banks, cash, and due from banks.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company’s stock-based employee compensation plan is described in Note 12, Stock Compensation. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, the Company measures the cost of the stock-based compensation based on the grant-date fair value of the award, recognizing the cost over the requisite service period. The fair value of an award is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The expense recognized is based on an estimation of the number of awards for which the requisite service is expected to be rendered, and is included in salaries and employee benefits in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. The standard also requires that excess tax benefits related to stock option exercises be reflected as financing cash inflows instead of operating cash inflows.

Loans, or portions of loans, are charged off to the extent deemed uncollectible or a loss is confirmed. Loan charge-offs reduce the allowance for loan losses, and recoveries of loans previously charged off are added back to the allowance. If management determines that it is probable that all amounts due on a loan will not be collected under the original terms of the loan agreement, the loan is considered to be impaired. These loans are evaluated individually for impairment, and in conjunction with current economic conditions and loss experience, specific reserves are estimated as further discussed below. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated by risk characteristics and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type, delinquencies, current economic conditions, loan risk ratings and industry concentration.

Impaired loans
Loans evaluated under ASC 310-10-35 include loans which are individually evaluated for impairment. All other loans are collectively evaluated for impairment under ASC 450-20. Impaired loans totaled $36.0 million and $35.1 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and are comprised of loans on non-accrual status and loans, which have been classified as troubled debt restructurings. Total impaired loans of $36.0 million at December 31, 2014 were individually evaluated for impairment compared to $35.1 million at December 31, 2013. The $35.1 million of total impaired loans individually evaluated for impairment as December 31, 2013, includes $34.8 million of impaired loans individually evaluated for impairment and $259,000 of non-accrual consumer loans that were collectively evaluated for impairment. Beginning in 2014, consumer non-accrual loans were included in the individually evaluated impairment calculations.
The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, $15.6 million and $21.8 million, respectively, of impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value less estimated selling costs of the loan’s collateral. Once the impairment amount is calculated, a specific reserve allocation is recorded. At December 31, 2014, $1.7 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses was allocated to impaired loans totaling $36.0 million compared to $4.8 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately

$35.1 million at December 31, 2013. Management determined that $28.5 million, or 79%, of total impaired loans required no reserve allocation at December 31, 2014 compared to $18.8 million, or 54%, at December 31, 2013 primarily due to adequate collateral values, acceptable payment history and adequate cash flow ability.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012
The recorded investment varies from the unpaid principal balance primarily due to partial charge-offs taken resulting from current appraisals received. The amount recognized as interest income on impaired loans continuing to accrue interest, primarily related to troubled debt restructurings, was $542,000 and $338,000, for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The average recorded investment in impaired loans is calculated on a monthly basis during the years reported. Contractual interest lost on loans in non-accrual status was $1.1 million and $1.2 million, for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Delinquent and Non-Accrual Loans
The delinquency status of loans is determined based on the contractual terms of the notes. Borrowers are generally classified as delinquent once payments become 30 days or more past due.
The following table provides aging information for the Company’s past due and non-accrual loans at December 31, 2014 and 2013.

Credit Quality
The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based upon an internal rating system reflecting management’s risk assessment. Loans are placed on watch status when one or more weaknesses that may result in the deterioration of the repayment exits or the Company’s credit position at some future date. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified may have a well defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the repayment of the debt. Such loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company may sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. It is the Company’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income on loans when management believes that the collection of interest or principal is doubtful. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when (1) deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower exists for which payment of full principal and interest is not expected,

or (2) payment of principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more and the asset is not both well secured and in the process of collection. Subsequent interest payments received on such loans are applied to principal if any doubt exists as to the collectability of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as interest income on a cash basis.
The following table presents the risk categories by class at December 31, 2014 and 2013.

When an individual loan is determined to be a TDR, the amount of impairment is based upon the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the underlying collateral less applicable selling costs. Accordingly, specific reserves of $1.0 million and $2.2 million related to TDRs were allocated to the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
The following table summarizes loans that were modified as TDRs during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

The amounts reported post-modification are inclusive of all partial pay-downs and charge-offs, and no portion of the debt was forgiven. Loans modified as a TDR that were fully paid down, charged-off, or foreclosed upon during the period ended are not reported.
The Company’s portfolio of loans classified as TDRs include concessions such as interest rates below the current market rate, deferring principal payments, and extending maturity dates. Once a loan becomes a TDR, it will continue to be reported as a TDR until it is ultimately repaid in full, charged-off, or the collateral for the loan is foreclosed and sold. The Company considers a loan in TDR status in default when the borrower’s payment according to the modified terms is at least 90 days past due or has defaulted due to

expiration of the loan’s maturity date. Four loans were modified in each of the years ending December 31, 2014 and 2013 meeting the TDR criteria. There were two loans modified as a TDR that defaulted during the year December 31, 2014, and within twelve months of their modification date compared to no loans during the year ended December 31, 2013.

The total available for sale portfolio consisted of approximately 300 securities at December 31, 2014. The portfolio included 74 securities having an aggregate fair value of $82.2 million that were in a loss position at December 31, 2014. Securities identified as temporarily impaired which had been in a loss position for 12 months or longer totaled $65.2 million at fair value. The $1.3 million aggregate unrealized loss included in accumulated other comprehensive income at December 31, 2014 was caused by interest rate fluctuations. The total available for sale portfolio consisted of approximately 348 securities at December 31, 2013. The portfolio included 96 securities having an aggregate fair value of $115.1 million that were in a loss position at December 31, 2013. Securities identified as temporarily impaired which had been in a loss position for 12 months or longer totaled $6.4 million at fair value. The $4.2 million aggregate unrealized loss included in accumulated other comprehensive income at December 31, 2013 was caused by interest rate fluctuations. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality these investments were not considered other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Mortgage Servicing Rights
On January 1, 2012, the Company opted to measure mortgage servicing rights at fair value as permitted by Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 860-50, Accounting for Servicing Financial Assets. The election of this option resulted in the recognition of a cumulative effect of change in accounting

principle of $459,890, which was recorded as an increase to beginning retained earnings. As such, effective January 1, 2012, changes in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights have been recognized in earnings in non-interest income in the period in which the change occurred.
At December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, the Company serviced mortgage loans for others totaling $313.9 million and $322.5 million, respectively. Mortgage loan servicing fees, reported as non-interest income, earned on loans sold were $895,000, $901,000, and $878,000, for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.

(1)
The change in fair value resulting from changes in valuation inputs or assumptions used in the valuation model reflects the change in discount rates and prepayment speed assumptions primarily due to changes in interest rates.
(2)
Other changes in fair value reflect changes due to customer payments and passage of time. The year ended December 31, 2012 includes a one time adjustment of a $538,000 correction of an immaterial prior period error due to changing from the straight-line amortization method to an accelerated amortization method of accounting for amortizing MSRs in prior years.
The following key data and assumptions were used in estimating the fair value of the Company’s mortgage servicing rights as of the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013:

The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB) and has access to term financing from the FHLB. These borrowings are secured under a blanket agreement which assigns all investment in FHLB stock, as well as qualifying first mortgage loans as collateral to secure amounts borrowed by the Bank. The outstanding balance of $43.0 million includes $10.0 million, which the FHLB may call for early payment within the next year. Based upon the collateral pledged to the FHLB at December 31, 2014, the Bank could borrow up to an additional $230.6 million under the agreement.
On March 17, 2005, Exchange Statutory Trust II, a business trust and subsidiary of the Company, issued $23.0 million of 30-year floating rate Trust Preferred Securities (TPS) to a TPS Pool. The floating rate is equal to a three-month LIBOR rate plus 1.83% and reprices quarterly (2.07% at December 31, 2014). The TPS can be prepaid without penalty at any time after five years from the issuance date.

December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012
The TPS represent preferred interests in the trust. The Company invested approximately $712,000 in common interests in the trust and the purchaser in the private placement purchased $23.0 million in preferred interests. The proceeds were used by the trust to purchase from the Company its 30-year deeply subordinated debentures whose terms mirror those stated above for the TPS. The debentures are guaranteed by the Company pursuant to a subordinated guarantee. Distributions on the TPS are payable quarterly on March 17, June 17, September 17, and December 17 of each year that the TPS are outstanding. The trustee for the TPS holders is U.S. Bank, N.A. The trustee does not have the power to take enforcement action in the event of a default under the TPS for five years from the date of default. In the event of default, however, the Company would be precluded from paying dividends until the default is cured.
On March 17, 2004, Exchange Statutory Trust I, a business trust and subsidiary of the Company issued $25.0 million of floating rate TPS to a TPS Pool. The floating rate is equal to the three-month LIBOR rate plus 2.70% and reprices quarterly (2.94% at December 31, 2014). The TPS are fully, irrevocably, and unconditionally guaranteed on a subordinated basis by the Company. The proceeds of the TPS were invested in junior subordinated debentures of the Company. Distributions on the TPS are payable quarterly on March 17, June 17, September 17, and December 17 of each year that the TPS are outstanding. The TPS mature on March 17, 2034. That maturity date may be shortened if certain conditions are met.
The Exchange Statutory Trusts are not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements. Accordingly, the Company does not report the securities issued by the Exchange Statutory Trusts as liabilities, and instead reports the subordinated notes issued by the Company and held by the Exchange Statutory Trusts as liabilities. The amount of the subordinated notes as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $49.5 million, respectively. The Company has recorded the investments in the common securities issued by the Exchange Statutory Trusts aggregating $1.5 million, and the corresponding obligations under the subordinated notes, as well as the interest income and interest expense on such investments and obligations in its consolidated financial statements.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012
The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not the Company will realize the benefits of these temporary differences at December 31, 2014 and, therefore, did not establish a valuation reserve.
The Company follows ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which addresses the accounting for uncertain tax positions. As of December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively, the Company did not have any uncertain tax provisions.

The Company’s profit-sharing plan includes a matching 401(k) portion, in which the Company matches the first 3% of eligible employee contributions. The Company made annual contributions in an amount up to 6% of income before income taxes and before contributions to the profit-sharing and pension plans for all participants, limited to the maximum amount deductible for federal income tax purposes, for each of the periods shown. In addition, employees were able to make additional tax-deferred contributions.
Pension
The Company provides a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan for all full-time employees. An employer is required to recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its balance sheet and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. Under the Company’s funding policy for the defined benefit pension plan, contributions are made to a trust as necessary to provide for current service and for any unfunded accrued actuarial liabilities over a reasonable period. To the extent that these requirements are fully covered by assets in the trust, a contribution might not be made in a particular year. The Company has not made any contributions to the defined benefit plan for the current plan year. There is no minimum required contribution for the 2015 plan year.

The assumed overall expected long-term rate of return on pension plan assets used in calculating 2014 pension expense was 7.0%. Determination of the plan’s rate of return is based upon historical returns for equities and fixed income indexes. During the past five years, the Company’s plan assets have experienced

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012
the following annual returns: 8.3% in 2014, 19.1% in 2013, 11.4% in 2012, 0.1% in 2011, and 12.4% in 2010. The rate used in plan calculations may be adjusted by management for current trends in the economic environment. With a traditional investment mix of over half of the plan’s investments in equities, the actual return for any one plan year may fluctuate significantly with changes in the stock market. Due to a decrease in discount rates used in the actuarial calculation of plan income, the Company expects to incur $1.4 million of expense in 2015 compared to $960,000 in 2014.
Plan Assets
The investment policy of the pension plan is designed for growth in value while minimizing risk to the overall portfolio. The Company diversifies the assets through investments in domestic and international fixed income securities and domestic and international equity securities. The assets are readily marketable and can be sold to fund benefit payment obligations as they become payable. The Company’s long-term investment target mix for the plan is 70% equity securities and 30% fixed income. The Company regularly reviews its policies on the investment mix and may make changes depending on economic conditions and perceived investment mix.

Under the treasury stock method, outstanding stock options are dilutive when the average market price of the Company’s common stock, when combined with the effect of any unamortized compensation expense, exceeds the option price during the period, except when the Company has a loss from continuing operations available to common shareholders. In addition, proceeds from the assumed exercise of dilutive options along with the related tax benefit are assumed to be used to repurchase common shares at the average market price of such stock during the period.
The following options to purchase shares during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 were not included in the respective computations of diluted earnings per share because the exercise price of the option, when combined with the effect of the unamortized compensation expense, was greater than the average market price of the common shares and were considered anti-dilutive.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012
(14) Capital Requirements
The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification of the Company and the Bank are subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier I capital to adjusted-average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements.
As of December 31, 2014, the most recent notification from the regulatory authorities categorized the bank as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well-capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s categories.

(15) Fair Value Measurements
The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities. The FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a framework for the measurement of fair value, and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard applies whenever other standards require (permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. In

AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012
this standard, FASB clarified the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. In support of this principle, the standard establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, there were no transfers into or out of Levels 1-3.
The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
Level 3 – Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and significant to the fair value. These may be internally developed using the Company’s best information and assumptions that a market participant would consider.
ASC Topic 820 also provides guidance on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and on identifying circumstances when a transaction may not be considered orderly.
The Company is required to disclose assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis separate from those measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Nonfinancial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis would include foreclosed real estate, long-lived assets, and core deposit intangible assets, which are reviewed when circumstances or other events indicate that impairment may have occurred.
Valuation methods for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis
Following is a description of the Company’s valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis:
Available-for-sale securities
The fair value measurements of the Company’s investment securities are determined by a third party pricing service which considers observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things. The fair value measurements are subject to independent verification to another pricing source by management each quarter for reasonableness. Securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs.
Mortgage servicing rights
The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on the discounted value of estimated future cash flows utilizing contractual cash flows, servicing rate, constant prepayment rate, servicing cost, and discount rate factors. Accordingly, the fair value is estimated based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds, market discount rates, cost to service, float earnings rates, and other ancillary income, including late fees. The valuation models estimate the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The Company classifies its servicing rights as Level 3.

Valuation methods for instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis
Following is a description of the Company’s valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:
Impaired Loans
The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis other than loans that are considered impaired. The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on fair values of the underlying collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. Once the fair value of the collateral has been determined and any impairment amount calculated, a specific reserve allocation is made. Because many of these inputs are not observable, the measurements are classified as Level 3. As of December 31, 2014, the Company identified $7.4 million in impaired loans that had specific allowances for losses aggregating $1.7 million. Related to these loans, there was $5.4 million in charge-offs recorded during the year ended December 31, 2014. As of December 31, 2013, the Company identified $16.3 million in impaired loans that had specific allowances for losses aggregating $4.8 million. Related to these loans, there was $3.2 million in charge-offs recorded during the year ended December 31, 2013.
Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets
Other real estate owned and repossessed assets consisted of loan collateral that has been repossessed through foreclosure. This collateral comprises of commercial and residential real estate and other non-real estate property, including autos, manufactured homes, and construction equipment. Other real estate owned assets are recorded as held for sale initially at the lower of the loan balance or fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. The Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by internal staff. In the case of non-real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety of sources, including external estimates of value and judgment based on experience and expertise of internal specialists. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the assets may be written down to reflect a new cost basis. Because many of these inputs are not observable, the measurements are classified as Level 3.

(16) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate such value:
Loans
The fair values of loans are estimated by discounting the expected future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans could be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The net carrying amount of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. This method of estimating fair value does not incorporate the exit-price concept of fair value prescribed by ASC Topic 820.
Investment Securities
A detailed description of the fair value measurement of the debt instruments in the available-for-sale sections of the investment security portfolio is provided in the Fair Value Measurement section above. A schedule of investment securities by category and maturity is provided in the notes on Investment Securities.
HAWTHORN BANCSHARES, INC.
AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012
Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) Stock
Ownership of equity securities of FHLB is restricted and there is no established market for their resale. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Federal Funds Sold, Cash, and Due from Banks
The carrying amounts of short-term federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell, interest earning deposits with banks, and cash and due from banks approximate fair value. Federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell classified as short-term generally mature in 90 days or less.
Mortgage Servicing Rights
The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on the discounted value of estimated future cash flows utilizing contractual cash flows, servicing rate, constant prepayment rate, servicing cost, and discount rate factors. Accordingly, the fair value is estimated based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds, market discount rates, cost to service, float earnings rates, and other ancillary income, including late fees.
Cash Surrender Value – Life Insurance
The fair value of Bank owned life insurance (BOLI) approximates the carrying amount. Upon liquidation of these investments, the Company would receive the cash surrender value which equals the carrying amount.
Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable
For accrued interest receivable and payable, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short maturity for these financial instruments.
Deposits
The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand, NOW accounts, savings, and money market, is equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of time deposits is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase and Interest-bearing Demand Notes to U.S. Treasury
For securities sold under agreements to repurchase and interest-bearing demand notes to U.S. Treasury, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value, as such instruments reprice in a short time period.
Subordinated Notes and Other Borrowings
The fair value of subordinated notes and other borrowings is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for other borrowed money of similar remaining maturities.

Off-Balance-Sheet Financial Instruments
The fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements, the likelihood of the counterparties drawing on such financial instruments, and the present creditworthiness of such counterparties. The Company believes such commitments have been made on terms that are competitive in the markets in which it operates.
Limitations
The fair value estimates provided are made at a point in time based on market information and information about the financial instruments. Because no market exists for a portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the fair value estimates.
(17) Repurchase Reserve Liability
The Company’s repurchase reserve liability for estimated losses incurred on sold loans was $160,000 at both December 31, 2014, and 2013. This liability represents management’s estimate of the potential repurchase or make-whole liability for residential mortgage loans originated for sale that may arise from representation and warranty claims that could relate to a variety of issues, including but not limited to, misrepresentation of facts, appraisal issues, or program requirements that may not meet investor guidelines. The Company has not experienced any repurchase losses during the year ended December 31, 2014. At December 31, 2014, the Company was servicing 3,057 loans sold to the secondary market with a balance of approximately $313.9 million compared to 3,114 loans sold with a balance of approximately $322.5 million at December 31, 2013.
(18) Commitments and Contingencies
The Company issues financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business of meeting the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments may involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012
The Company’s extent of involvement and maximum potential exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for financial instruments included on its consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2014, no amounts have been accrued for any estimated losses for these financial instruments.
The contractual amount of off-balance-sheet financial instruments as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 is as follows:

Commitments
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since certain of the commitments and letters of credit are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, furniture and equipment, and real estate.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These standby letters of credit are primarily issued to support contractual obligations of the Company’s customers. The approximate remaining term of standby letters of credit range from one month to five years at December 31, 2014.
Pending Litigation
The Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in various legal actions incidental to the Company’s past and current business activities. Based on the Company’s analysis, and considering the inherent uncertainties associated with litigation, management does not believe that it is reasonably possible that these legal actions will materially adversely affect the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations in the near term. The Company records a loss accrual for all legal matters for which it deems a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Some legal matters, which are at early stages in the legal process, have not yet progressed to the point where a loss amount can be estimated.

The board of directors intends that the Company will continue to pay quarterly dividends. The actual amount of quarterly dividends and the payment, as well as the amount, of any special dividend ultimately will depend on the payment of sufficient dividends by the subsidiary Bank to the Company. The payment by the Bank of dividends to the Company will depend upon such factors as the Bank’s financial condition, results of operations and current and anticipated cash needs, including capital requirements.
Stock Performance Graph
The following performance graph shows a comparison of cumulative total returns for the Company, the Nasdaq Stock Market (U.S. Companies), and a peer index of financial institutions having total assets of between $1 billion and $5 billion for the period from December 31, 2009, through December 31, 2014. The cumulative total return on investment for each of the periods for the Company, the Nasdaq Stock Market (U.S. Companies) and the peer index is based on the stock price or index at December 31, 2009. The performance graph assumes that the value of an investment in the Company’s common stock and each index was $100 at December 31, 2009 and that all dividends were reinvested. The information presented in the performance graph is historical in nature and is not intended to represent or guarantee future returns.
The comparison of cumulative total returns presented in the above graph was plotted using the following index values and common stock price values:
