WCF BANCORP, INC. ANNOUNCES RESULTS OF STOCK OFFERING AND CLOSING OF CONVERSION OF WCF FINANCIAL, M.H.C.

Webster City, Iowa, July 12, 2016 — WCF Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), the proposed holding company for WCF Financial Bank (the “Bank”), announced that the closing of the Company’s stock offering and the mutual to stock conversion of WCF Financial, M.H.C. are expected to occur on July 13, 2016.  The Company’s stock is expected to begin trading on Nasdaq under the symbol “WCFB” on Thursday, July 14, 2016.

A total of 2,139,231 shares of common stock are expected to be sold in the subscription offering at a price of $8.00 per share.  As previously disclosed, the offering was oversubscribed by eligible account holders (those depositors having a qualifying deposit as of December 31, 2014) who had a first tier priority in the subscription offering.  Accordingly, shares will be allocated to those first tier subscribers in accordance with the Plan of Conversion and Reorganization, as described in the Prospectus.  Beginning July 13, 2016, eligible account holders wishing to confirm their allocations may do so by visiting https://allocations.kbw.com or by contacting the Stock Information Center at (877) 643-8217 which is open Monday through Friday, between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., Central Time, except bank holidays.

As part of the conversion, each existing share of common stock of Webster City Federal Bancorp (OTC Pink: WCFB), the Bank’s current mid-tier stock holding company, held by current public shareholders will be converted into the right to receive 0.8115 shares of WCF Bancorp common stock.  The exchange ratio ensures that, after the conversion and offering, the current public shareholders of Webster City Federal Bancorp will maintain approximately the same ownership interest in WCF Bancorp as they owned in Webster City Federal Bancorp immediately prior to the closing of the conversion, as adjusted to reflect actual assets held by WCF Financial, M.H.C.  Cash will be issued in lieu of fractional shares based on the offering price of $8.00 per share.  2,563,224 shares of WCF Bancorp common stock will be outstanding after the completion of the offering and the exchange, before taking into account adjustments for fractional shares.

The common stock of Webster City Federal Bancorp is expected to cease trading at the close of business on July 13, 2016.  WCF Bancorp’s common stock is expected to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the trading symbol “WCFB” beginning on July 14, 2016.

Direct Registration System (“DRS”) statements for shares purchased in the subscription offering, interest checks and refund checks for any persons not receiving all shares ordered will be mailed to purchasers following the completion of the offering.  Shareholders of Webster City Federal Bancorp holding shares in street name or in book-entry form will receive shares of WCF Bancorp common stock within their accounts.  Shareholders holding shares in certificated form will be mailed a letter of transmittal containing instructions as to how to exchange their shares.  Shareholders will receive a DRS statement and cash in lieu of fractional shares after returning their Company stock certificates and a properly completed letter of transmittal to WCF Bancorp’s transfer agent.
