NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Principles of Consolidation:

Farmers National Banc Corp. (“Company” or "Farmers") is a Financial Holding Company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. The Company provides full banking services through its nationally chartered subsidiary, The Farmers National Bank of Canfield (“Bank”). The consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of the Bank’s subsidiaries; Farmers National Insurance, LLC (“Insurance”) and Farmers of Canfield Investment Co. (“Investments”). The Company provides trust and retirement consulting services through its subsidiary, Farmers Trust Company (“Trust”), and insurance services through the Bank’s subsidiary, Insurance. Farmers National Captive, Inc. (“Captive”) is a wholly-owned insurance subsidiary of the Company that provides property and casualty insurance coverage to the Company and its subsidiaries. The Captive pools resources with eleven similar insurance company subsidiaries of financial institutions to spread a limited amount of risk among themselves and to provide insurance where not currently available or economically feasible in today’s insurance market place. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Bank and its subsidiaries, along with the Trust and Captive. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Basis of Presentation:

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report to Shareholders included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (“2021 Form 10-K”). The interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring items) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year. Certain items included in the prior period financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. There was no effect on net income or total stockholders’ equity.

Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Segments:

The Company provides a broad range of financial services to individuals and companies in northeastern Ohio and western Pennsylvania. Operations are managed and financial performance is primarily aggregated and reported in two lines of business, the Bank segment and the Trust segment.

Equity:

There are 50,000,000 shares authorized and available for issuance as of June 30, 2022. Outstanding shares at June 30, 2022 were 34,032,157.

Comprehensive Income:

Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income consists of unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale and changes in the funded status of the post-retirement plan, which are recognized as components of stockholders’ equity, net of tax effect.

Updates to Significant Accounting Policies:

New Accounting Standard:

On March 31, 2022, FASB issued ASU 2022-02, which eliminates the troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”), accounting model for creditors that have adopted Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. Due to the removal of the TDR accounting model, all loan modifications now will be accounted for under the general loan modification guidance in Subtopic 310-20. In addition, on a prospective basis, entities will be subject to new disclosure requirements covering modifications of receivables to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. Public business entities within the scope of the Topic 326 vintage disclosure requirements also will be required to prospectively disclose current-period gross write-off information by vintage, or year of origination. For entities that have adopted Topic 326, ASU 2022-02 takes effect in reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has elected not to early adopt ASU 2022-02 at this time. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial condition.

Business Combinations:

On March 23, 2022, Farmers entered into an agreement and plan of merger with Emclaire Financial (“Emclaire”), the parent company of The Farmers National Bank of Emlenton (“Emlenton”). The transaction has received Emclaire shareholder approval but is still subject to customary regulatory approvals and is expected to close in the second half of 2022. The transaction will create a large expansion in Pennsylvania and into the Pittsburgh market. Emclaire operates 19 branches in ten counties throughout western Pennsylvania. As of June 30, 2022, Emclaire had total assets of $1 billion, gross loans of $810.7 million, deposits of $937.6 million and equity of $80.2 million.

On November 1, 2021, the Company completed the merger with Cortland Bancorp (“Cortland”), the parent company of The Cortland Savings and Banking Company (“Cortland Bank”), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 22, 2021, as amended by that certain Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated October 12, 2021 (collectively, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Cortland, and FMNB Merger Subsidiary IV, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, on November 1, 2021, Cortland merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with Merger Sub as the surviving entity in the Merger. Promptly following the consummation of the Merger, Merger Sub was dissolved and liquidated and Cortland Bank merged with and into the Bank (the “Bank Merger”), with the Bank as the surviving bank in the Bank Merger. The transaction received the approval of Cortland’s shareholders and all customary regulatory approvals. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each common share, without par value, of Cortland issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (except for certain Cortland common shares held directly by Cortland or the Company) was converted into the right to receive, without interest, $28.00 per share in cash or 1.75 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to an overall limitation of 75% of the Cortland shares being exchanged for the Company’s shares and the remaining 25% being exchanged for cash. The Company issued 5.6 million shares of its common stock along with cash of $29.6 million, which represented a transaction value of approximately $128.5 million based on its closing stock price of $17.82 on October 31, 2021, the closing of the Merger.

In accordance with ASC 805, the Company expensed approximately $2.6 million of merger related costs during the six month period ended June 30, 2022, in addition to $7.1 million expensed in the year ended 2021. The Company recorded goodwill of $48.5 million as a result of the Cortland combination. Goodwill represents the future economic benefits arising from net assets acquired that are not individually identified and separately recognized and is attributable to synergies, including the reduction of personnel and overlapping contracts, expected to be derived from the Company’s strategy to enhance and expand its presence in northeast Ohio. The merger offers the Company the opportunity to increase profitability by introducing existing products and services to the acquired customer base as well as add new customers in the expanded market area. The goodwill was determined not to be deductible for income tax purposes.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2021, which made improvements to the accounting for credit losses on securities available for sale. During the evaluation process, management considers the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Company to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

If the Company determines that a credit loss exists, the credit portion of the allowance will be measured using a discounted cash flow analysis using the effective interest rate as of the security’s purchase date. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s security portfolio consisted of 889 securities, 795 of which were in an unrealized loss position. The majority of the unrealized losses on the Company’s securities are related to its holdings of mortgage-backed securities and state and political subdivisions. The Company does not consider its available for sale ("AFS") securities with unrealized losses to be attributable to credit-related factors, as the unrealized losses have occurred as a result of changes in noncredit related factors such as changes in interest rates, market spreads and market conditions subsequent to purchase, not credit deterioration. As of June 30, 2022 the Company has not recorded an allowance for credit losses on AFS securities.

There were no charge offs and no increase to the provision for credit losses during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022, respectively, as a result of the outstanding troubled debt restructurings. There were $106 thousand and $126 thousand in charge offs and a $105 thousand and $125 thousand increase to the provision for credit losses during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021, respectively, as a result of outstanding troubled debt restructurings.

There were two residential real estate loans for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification of the troubled debt restructuring during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022. The loans were past due at June 30, 2022. There was no provision recorded as a result of the defaults during 2022. A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 30 days contractually past due under the modified terms.

There were two commercial loans, one residential loan, and one indirect loan for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification of the troubled debt restructuring during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021. There were two commercial loans past due at June 30, 2021. There was no provision recorded as a result of the defaults during 2021.

A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 30 days contractually past due under the modified terms.

The Company offered three month deferrals upon request by the borrowers. For those borrowers in industries that were greatly impacted by COVID-19, additional deferrals were considered and granted beyond the initial three month period throughout 2021. The range of deferred months for subsequent requests were three to twelve months. The decline in deferred loans and balances was due to borrowers

15

not requesting additional deferments and most continued to pay under the original terms of their loan. As of June 30, 2022 there are no longer borrowers on deferment due to COVID-19 related issues.

Farmers is also a preferred U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) lender and dedicated significant additional staff and other resources to help our customers complete and submit their applications and supporting documentation for loans offered under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) under the CARES Act, so they could obtain SBA approval and receive funding as quickly as possible. During the period of the PPP program, the Company facilitated PPP assistance to 2,134 business customers totaling $256.4 million. The Company, on behalf of its customers, began processing borrower applications for PPP forgiveness at the beginning of September 2020. The SBA has up to ninety days to review an application for PPP forgiveness and provide a decision at the end of that review. Once forgiveness of the PPP loan has been communicated and payment is received from the SBA, the Company will record the cash received from the SBA, pay-off the loans based on the amount of forgiveness provided and accelerate the amount of net deferred loan fees/costs recognized for the portion of the PPP loans that are forgiven. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has received life to date payments from the SBA for forgiveness of loans totaling $256.3 million, or approximately 99.98% of the PPP loans originated in 2020. The Company processed $107.9 million in new loans for PPP loan funding during 2021. The Company has also received payments from the SBA for forgiveness of loans totaling $105.4 million, or approximately 97.72%, of the PPP loans originated in 2021.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company establishes a risk rating at origination for all commercial loan and commercial real estate relationships. For relationships over $1 million, management monitors the loans on an ongoing basis for any changes in the borrower’s ability to service their debt. Management also affirms the risk ratings for the loans in their respective portfolios on an annual basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.

Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. Substandard loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass rated loans.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans by class of loans is as follows:

The Company considers the performance of the loan portfolio and its impact on the allowance for credit losses. For residential, consumer indirect and direct loan classes, the Company evaluates credit quality based on the aging status of the loan, which was previously presented, and by payment activity. In the 1-4 family residential real estate portfolio at June 30, 2022, other real estate owned and foreclosure properties were $0 and $33 thousand, respectively. At December 31, 2021, other real estate owned and foreclosure properties were $0 and $93 thousand, respectively.

The following tables present the recorded investment in residential, consumer indirect and direct auto loans based on payment activity as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Nonperforming loans are loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest and nonaccrual loans.

Purchased Loans

As a result of the Cortland Merger, the Company acquired $478.2 million in loans, excluding $4.0 million of loans held for sale.

Under ASU Topic 326, when loans are purchased with evidence of more than significant deterioration of credit, they are accounted for as purchase credit deteriorated (“PCD”). PCD loans acquired in a transaction are marked to fair value and a mark on yield is recorded. In addition, an adjustment is made to the ACL for the expected loss on the acquisition date. These loans are assessed on a regular basis and subsequent adjustments to the ACL are recorded on the income statement. During 2021, the Company acquired PCD loans with a fair value of $34.3 million, credit discount of $1.3 million and a noncredit discount of $1.1 million. The outstanding balance at June 30, 2022 and related allowance on these loans is as follows:

A description of the Company’s revenue streams under ASC 606 follows:

Service charges on deposit accounts – The Company earns fees from its deposit customers for transaction-based, account maintenance, and overdraft services. Management reviewed the deposit account agreements, and determined that the agreements can be terminated at any time by either the Bank or the account holder. Transaction fees, such as balance transfers, wires and overdraft charges are settled the day the performance obligation is satisfied. The Bank’s monthly service charges and maintenance fees are for services provided to the customer on a monthly basis and are considered a series of services that have the same pattern of transfer each month. The review of service charges assessed on deposit accounts included the amount of variable consideration that is a part of the monthly charges. It was found that the waiver of service charges due to insufficient funds and dormant account fees is immaterial and would not require a change in the accounting treatment for these fees under the new revenue standards.

Debit Card Interchange Fees – Customers and the Bank have an account agreement and maintain deposit balances with the Bank. Customers use a bank issued debit card to purchase goods and services, and the Bank earns interchange fees on those transactions, typically a percentage of the sale amount of the transaction. The Bank records the amount due when it receives the settlement from the payment network. Payments from the payment network are received and recorded into income on a daily basis. There are no contingent debit card interchange fees recorded by the Company that could be subject to a clawback in future periods.

Trust fees – Services provided to Trust customers are a series of distinct services that have the same pattern of transfer each month. Fees for trust accounts are billed and drafted from trust accounts monthly. The Company records these fees on the income statement on a monthly basis. Fees are assessed based on the total investable assets of the customer’s trust account. A signed contract between the Company and the customer is maintained for all customer trust accounts with payment terms identified. It is probable that the fees will be collectible as funds being managed are accessible by the asset manager. Past history of trust fee income recorded by the Company indicates that it is highly unlikely that a significant reversal could occur. There are no contingent incentive fees recorded by the Company that could be subject to a clawback in future periods.

Insurance Agency Commissions – Insurance agency commissions are received from insurance carriers for the agency’s share of commissions from customer premium payments. These commissions are recorded into income when checks are received from the insurance carriers, and there is no contingent portion associated with these commission checks. There may be a short time-lag in recording revenue when cash is received instead of recording the revenue when the policy is signed by the customer, but the time lag is insignificant and does not impact the revenue recognition process.

20

Insurance also receives incentive checks from the insurance carriers for achieving specified levels of production with particular carriers. These amounts are recorded into income when a check is received, and there are no contingent amounts associated with these payments that may be clawed back by the carrier in the future. Similar to the monthly commissions explained in the preceding paragraph, there may be a short time-lag in recording incentive revenue on a cash basis as opposed to estimating the amount of incentive revenue expected to be earned, this does not materially impact the recognition of Insurance revenue. If there were any amounts that would need to be refunded for one specific Insurance customer, management believes the reversal would not be significant.

Other potential situations surrounding the recognition of Insurance revenue include the estimating potential refunds due to the likely cancellation of a percentage of customers cancelling their policies and recording revenue at the time of policy renewals. Management concluded that since Insurance agency commissions represent only 2.3% of the Company’s total revenue, adjusting the current practice of recording insurance revenue for these situations would not have a material impact on the reporting of total revenue.

Retirement Plan Consulting Fees – Revenue is recognized based on the level of work performed for the client. Any payments that are received for work to be performed in the future are recorded in a deferred revenue account, and recorded into income when the fees are earned. Retirement plan consulting fees represent only 0.8% of the Company’s total revenue, and therefore management has concluded that any adjustment of revenue for one particular customer for a refund or any other reason would be insignificant and would not materially impact the Company’s total revenue.

Investment Commissions – Investment commissions are earned through the sales of non-deposit investment products to customers of the Company. The sales are conducted through a third-party broker-dealer. When the commissions are received and recorded into income on the Bank’s income statement, there is no contingent portion that may need to be refunded back to the third party broker dealer. Investment commissions represent only 1.3% of the Company’s total revenue, and therefore management has concluded that any adjustment of revenue for a particular customer for a refund or any other reason would be insignificant and would not materially impact the Company’s total revenue.

Other – Income items included in “Other” are Bank owned life insurance income, security gains, net gains on the sale of loans and other operating income. There is also a one-time legal settlement of $8.4 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2022. Any amounts within the scope of ASC 606 are deemed immaterial.

Fair Value:

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset, or paid to transfer a liability (exit price), in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2 – Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of each type of financial instrument:

Investment Securities: The Company uses a third party service to estimate fair value on available for sale securities on a monthly basis. The Company’s service provider is considered a leading evaluation pricing service for U.S. domestic fixed income securities and values securities using exit pricing requirements. They subscribe to multiple third-party pricing vendors, and supplement that information with matrix pricing methods. The fair values for investment securities, which consist of equity securities that are recorded at fair market value to comply with exit pricing, are determined by quoted market prices in active markets, if available (Level 1). The equity securities change in fair market value is recorded in the income statements. For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for similar assets in markets that are not active or inputs other than quoted prices, which provide a reasonable basis for fair value determination. Such inputs may include interest rates and yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks and default rates. Inputs used are derived principally from observable market data (Level 2). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3). The fair values of Level 3 investment securities are determined by using unobservable inputs to measure fair value of assets for which there is little, if any, market activity at the measurement date, using reasonable inputs and assumptions based on the best information at the time, to the extent that inputs are available without undue cost and effort. For the period ended June 30, 2022 and for the year ended December 31, 2021, the fair value of Level 3 investment securities was immaterial.

21

Derivative Instruments: The fair values of derivative instruments are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2).

Collateral Dependent Loans: Fair value estimates of collateral dependent loans that are individually reviewed are based on the fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell. Non-collateral dependent loans are valued based on discounted cash flows. Loans carried at fair value generally receive specific allocations of the allowance for credit losses in the current period and allowance for loan losses in prior periods. For collateral dependent loans, fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. These loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis and adjusted accordingly.

Other Real Estate Owned: Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair values are commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may use a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Appraisals for both collateral-dependent impaired loans and other real estate owned are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial and commercial real estate properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. Once received, a member of the Appraisal Department reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics. On an annual basis, the Company compares the actual selling price of collateral that has been sold to the most recent appraised value to determine what adjustments should be made to appraisals to arrive at fair value.

Collateral dependent loans were individually evaluated under ASC 326 for the periods ending June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Collateral dependent loans had a principal balance of $1.5 million with a valuation allowance of $590 thousand at June 30, 2022. Collateral dependent loans had a principal balance of $3.2 million with a valuation allowance of $1.5 million at December 31, 2021. Excluded from the above tables at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, are $842 thousand and $792 thousand of loans classified as troubled debt restructurings and measured using the present value of cash flows, which is not considered an exit price.

Collateral dependent commercial real estate loans, both owner-occupied and non-owner occupied are valued by independent external appraisals. These external appraisals are prepared using the sales comparison approach and income approach valuation techniques. Management makes subsequent unobservable adjustments to the collateral dependent loan appraisals. Collateral dependent loans other than commercial real estate and other real estate owned are not considered material.

The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value, not previously described, are described as follows:

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values and are classified as Level 1.

Regulatory Stock: It is not practical to determine the fair value of regulatory stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.

Loans: Fair values of loans, excluding loans held for sale, are estimated as follows: The Company uses a third party firm that uses cash flow analysis and current market interest rates along with adjustments for credit, liquidity and option risk to conform to the ASU 2016-01 exit price requirement. Loans in the tables above consist of impaired credits held for investment. Fair value for collateral dependent loans is based upon appraised values adjusted for trends observed in the market, less estimated cost to sell. The cash flow method is used for estimating fair value for noncollateral dependent loans. A valuation allowance was recorded for the excess of the loan’s recorded investment over the amounts determined by the collateral value method. This valuation is a component of the allowance for credit losses. The Company considers these fair values Level 3.

Loans held for sale: The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated based upon binding contracts and quotes from third party investors resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Deposits: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits – interest and non-interest checking, passbook savings, and money market accounts – are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date resulting in a Level 1 classification. The carrying amounts of variable rate certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date resulting in a Level 2 classification. Fair value for fixed rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flows calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Short-term Borrowings: The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, borrowings under repurchase agreements, and other short-term borrowings, generally maturing within ninety days, approximate their fair values resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Long-term Borrowings: The fair values of the Company’s long-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Off-balance Sheet Instruments: The fair value of commitments is not considered material.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets:

Goodwill associated with the Company’s acquisition of Cortland in November 2021 and other past acquisitions totaled $94.2 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Impairment exists when a reporting unit’s carrying value of goodwill exceeds its fair value, which is determined through an impairment test. Management performs goodwill impairment testing on an annual basis as of September 30. The fair value of the reporting units is determined using a combination of a discounted cash flow method and a guideline public company method. Results of the assessment indicated no goodwill impairment as of September 30, 2021. The Company will continue to monitor its goodwill for possible impairment.

Derivative Financial Instruments:

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company maintains an interest rate protection program for commercial loan customers. Under this program, the Company provides a variable rate loan while creating a fixed rate loan for the customer by the customer entering into an interest rate swap with terms that match the loan. The Company offsets its risk exposure by entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with an unaffiliated institution. The Company had interest rate swaps associated with commercial loans with a notional value of $73.9 million and fair value of $3.1 million in other assets and $3.1 million in other liabilities at June 30, 2022. At December 31, 2021 the Company had interest rate swaps associated with commercial loans with and a notional value of $86.1 million and fair value of $4.0 million in other assets and $4.0 million in other liabilities. The interest rate swaps with both the customers and third parties are not designated as hedges under FASB ASC 815 and are not marked to market through earnings. As the interest rate swaps are structured to offset each other, changes to the underlying benchmark interest rates considered in the valuation of these instruments do not result in an impact to earnings; however, there may be fair value adjustments related to credit quality variations between counterparties, which may impact earnings as required by FASB ASC 820.

There were no net gains or losses for interest rate swaps for the period ended June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

Mortgage Banking Derivatives

Commitments to fund certain mortgage loans (interest rate locks) to be sold into the secondary market and forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third-party investors are considered derivatives. Effective May 2022, the Company began the practice of entering into forward commitments for the future delivery of residential mortgage loans when the interest rate lock commitments are entered into in order to economically hedge the effect of changes in interest rates resulting from its commitments to fund the loans. These mortgage banking derivatives are not designated as hedge instruments. The Company had approximately $10.3 million of interest rate lock commitments at June 30, 2022 and $25.7 million of interest rate lock commitments at December 31, 2021. There were $9.0 million of forward sales of mortgage backed securities and $1.0 million of forward commitments for the future delivery of residential mortgage loans at June 30, 2022.

The net gains and losses on derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments are included in mortgage banking income. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022, gains of $34,000 and losses of $252,000, respectively, were included in mortgage banking income for the interest rate lock commitments. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, gains of $423,000 were included in mortgage banking income for the interest rate lock commitments. Gains of $23,000 were included in mortgage banking income for both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022 for the forward sales of mortgage backed securities.

Stock Based Compensation:

In April of 2022, the Company, with the approval of shareholders, created the 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”). The 2022 Plan permits the award of up to one million shares to the Company’s directors and employees to attract and retain exceptional personnel, motivate performance and most importantly to help align the interests of the Company’s executives with those of the Company’s shareholders. The 2022 Plan has replaced the 2017 Plan. There were 26,000 service time based share awards granted under the 2022 Plan, and 75,768 service time based share awards and 56,724 performance based share awards granted under the 2017 Plan during the six month period ended June 30, 2022, as shown in the table below. The actual number of performance based shares issued will depend on the relative performance of the Company’s average return on equity compared to a group of peer companies over a three year vesting period, ending December 31, 2024. As of June 30, 2022, 974,000 shares are still available to be awarded from the 2022 Plan. The 2017 Plan has been sunset.

The restricted stock awards were granted with a fair value price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of the grant. Expense recognized was $438 thousand and $803 thousand for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022, respectively. During the prior periods, the expense recognized was $257 thousand and $587 thousand for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, there was $3.7 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to the nonvested shares granted under the Plan. The remaining cost is expected to be recognized over 2.7 years.

The following is the activity under the Plans during the six month period ended June 30, 2022.

	Maximum Awarded Service Units			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value		Maximum Awarded Performance Units			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value

Regulatory Capital Matters:

Banks and bank holding companies are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the financial statements. Management believes that as of June 30, 2022, the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

The FDIC and other federal banking regulators revised the risk-based capital requirements applicable to financial holding companies and insured depository institutions, including the Company and the Bank, to make them consistent with agreements that were reached by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (“Basel III”).

The common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital and total capital ratios are calculated by dividing the respective capital amounts by risk-weighted assets. The leverage ratio is calculated by dividing tier 1 capital by adjusted average total assets.

Basel III limits capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments if the banking organization does not hold a “capital conservation buffer” consisting of 2.5% of common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital and total capital to risk-weighted assets in addition to the amount necessary to meet minimum risk-based capital requirements. Excluding the additional buffer, Basel III requires the Company and the Bank to maintain (i) a minimum ratio of common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5%, (ii) a minimum ratio of tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0%, (iii) a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.0% and (iv) a minimum leverage ratio of at least 4.0%.

29

Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If only adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and capital restoration plans are required. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution’s category.

Actual and required capital amounts and ratios, which do not include the capital conservation buffer, are presented below at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

The Bank segment includes Farmers National Insurance and Farmers of Canfield Investment Co.

Short-term borrowings:

The Bank had short-term advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") at June 30, 2022 of $50 million. The interest rate on these borrowings was 1.56% at June 30, 2022. The Bank had no short-term advances from the FHLB at December 31, 2021.

The Bank has access to lines of credit amounting to $35 million at two major domestic banks that are below prime rate. The lines and terms are periodically reviewed by the lending banks and are generally subject to withdrawal at their discretion. There were no borrowings under these lines at June 30, 2022 or at December 31, 2021.

Farmers has two unsecured revolving lines of credit for $6.5 million. These lines can be renewed annually. The lines have interest rates of prime with floors of 3.5% and 4.5%. There were no outstanding balances on either of these two lines at June 30, 2022 or at December 31, 2021, respectively.

Long-term borrowings:

There were no long-term advances from the FHLB at June 30, 2022 or at December 31, 2021.

The Bank’s long-term and short-term FHLB advances are secured by a blanket pledge of residential mortgage, commercial real estate, and multi-family loans totaling $1.3 billion and $1.2 billion at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Based on this collateral, the Bank is eligible to borrow an additional $645.2 million at June 30, 2022.

In November 2021, the Company completed the issuance of $75.0 million aggregate principal amount, fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes due December 15, 2031, in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The notes carry a fixed rate of 3.125% for five years at which time they will convert to a floating rate based on the three-month term secured overnight funding rate, plus a spread of 220 basis points. The Company may, at its option, beginning December 15, 2026, redeem the notes, in whole or in part, from time to time, subject to certain conditions. The net proceeds from the sale were approximately $73.8 million, after deducting the offering expenses. The Company’s intent was to use the proceeds from the sale for general corporate purposes, which may include, without limitation, providing capital to support its growth organically or through acquisitions, in financing investments, capital expenditures, repurchasing its common shares and for investments in the Bank as regulatory capital. The subordinated debentures are included in Total Capital under current regulatory guidelines and interpretations.

On November 1, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of Cortland, which included the assumption of Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Debt Securities due in September 15, 2037 (the "junior subordinated debt securities") at an acquisition-date fair value of $4.3 million, held in a wholly-owned statutory trust whose common securities were wholly-owned by Cortland. The sole assets of the statutory trust are the junior subordinated debt securities and related payments. The junior subordinated debt securities and the back-up obligations, in the aggregate, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee of the obligations of the statutory trust under the capital securities held by third-party investors. The securities bear interest at a rate of 1.45% over the 3-month LIBOR rate. The rate at June 30, 2022 was 3.28% and at December 31, 2021 was 1.65%.

On January 7, 2020, the Company completed its acquisition of Maple Leaf, which included the assumption of Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Debt Securities due December 15, 2036 (the "junior subordinated debt securities") held in a wholly-owned statutory trust whose common securities were wholly-owned by Maple Leaf. The sole assets of the statutory trust are the junior subordinated debt securities and related payments. The junior subordinated debt securities and the back-up obligations, in the aggregate, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee of the obligations of the statutory trust under the capital securities held by third-party investors. The securities bear interest at a rate of 1.80% over the 3-month LIBOR rate. The rate at June 30, 2022 was 3.63% and at December 31, 2021 was 1.90%.

In 2015, the Company completed its acquisition of National Bancshares Corporation (“NBOH”), which included the assumption of Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Debt Securities due June 15, 2035 (the "junior subordinated debt securities") held in a wholly-owned statutory trust whose common securities were wholly-owned by NBOH. The sole assets of the statutory trust are the junior subordinated debt securities and related payments. The junior subordinated debt securities and the back-up obligations, in the aggregate, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee of the obligations of the statutory trust under the capital securities held by third-party investors. The securities bear interest at a rate of 1.70% over the 3-month LIBOR rate. The rate at June 30, 2022 was 3.53% and at December 31, 2021 was 2.00%.

32

In all three instances, the Company may redeem the junior subordinated debentures at any quarter-end, in whole, or in part, at par. This type of subordinated debenture qualifies as Tier 1 capital for regulatory purposes in determining and evaluating the Company’s capital adequacy.

A summary of all junior subordinated debentures issued by the Company to affiliates and subordinated debentures follows. For the junior subordinated debentures, these amounts represent the par value of the obligations owed to these affiliates, including the Company’s equity interest in the trusts along with any unamortized fair value marks. For the subordinated debentures, these amounts represent the par value less the remaining deferred offering expense associated with the issuance of the debentures.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are not statements of historical fact, but rather statements based on the Company’s current expectations, beliefs and assumptions regarding the future of Farmers’ business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, its intended results and future performance, the economy and other future conditions. Forward-looking statements are preceded by terms such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “expect,” “estimate,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” or variations of these words, or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance and actual future results could differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Numerous uncertainties, risks, and changes could cause or contribute to Farmers’ actual results, performance, and achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, without limitation, risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), including without limitation, the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K, as updated in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Many of these factors are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict, and readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on those forward-looking statements. The following, which is not intended to be an all-encompassing list, summarizes several factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those anticipated or expected in any forward-looking statement:

•general economic conditions in markets where the Company conducts business, which could materially impact credit quality trends;

•effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the local, national, and international economy, our organization and employees, and our customers and suppliers and their business operations, financial condition, and including our customers’ ability to repay loans;

•disruptions in the mortgage and lending markets and significant or unexpected fluctuations in interest rates related to COVID-19 and governmental responses, including financial stimulus packages;

•general business conditions in the banking industry;

•the regulatory environment;

•general fluctuations in interest rates;

•demand for loans in the market areas where the Company conducts business;

•rapidly changing technology and evolving banking industry standards;

•competitive factors, including increased competition with regional and national financial institutions;

•new service and product offerings by competitors and price pressures;

•and the regulatory landscape, capital markets, and the response to and management of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the provision of additional economic stimulus from the federal government.

Other factors not currently anticipated may also materially and adversely affect the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position. There can be no assurance that future results will meet expectations. While the Company believes that the forward-looking statements in the presentation are reasonable, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. In addition, these statements speak only as of the date made. The Company does not undertake, and expressly disclaims, any obligation to update or alter any statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable law.

Overview

The Company’s results of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 are discussed below. However, the Company’s past results of operations may not reflect its future operating trends.

The Company’s net income for the three months ended June 30, 2022, was $16.0 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, which compares to $15.6 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Net income improved as a result of the earnings stream from the Cortland acquisition, but diluted earnings per share are actually lower due to the increased share count outstanding as

34

well as lower income associated with PPP loans and lower gains on the sale of loans. Annualized return on average assets and annualized return on average equity were 1.54% and 17.97%, respectively, for the three month period ended June 30, 2022, compared to 1.90% and 17.17% for the same three month period in 2021.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $31.8 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, compared to $30.1 million, or $1.06 per diluted share, for the same six month period in 2021. The increase in net income but decline in diluted earnings per share for the year-over-year comparison is due to the same reasons discussed above. The annualized return on average assets and annualized return on average equity were 1.53% and 15.67%, respectively, for the six month period ended June 30, 2022, compared to 1.89% and 17.15% for the same six month period in 2021.

On March 23, 2022, Farmers entered into an agreement and plan of merger with Emclaire Financial Corp. (NASDAQ: EMCF), a Pennsylvania corporation (“Emclaire”), the parent company of The Farmers National Bank of Emlenton (“Emlenton”). The transaction has received the approval of Emclaire's shareholders and is awaiting the customary regulatory approvals. The transaction is expected to close during the second half of 2022. The transaction will mark the Company’s expansion into Pennsylvania including the Pittsburgh market. Emclaire operates 19 branches in ten counties throughout western Pennsylvania. As of June 30, 2022, Emclaire had total assets of $1.0 billion, gross loans of $810.7 million, deposits of $937.6 million and equity of $80.2 million.

Total loans were $2.37 billion at June 30, 2022 compared to $2.33 billion at December 31, 2021. The quarter exhibited broad based strength as the Company saw growth across every loan category exclusive of PPP loans. At June 30, 2022, the Company has $2.5 million of PPP loans before deferred fees still to be forgiven, and $72 thousand in net deferred fees associated with these loans yet to be recognized into income.

Non-performing assets to total assets remain at a low level, currently at 0.34%. Early stage delinquencies, which are loans 30 - 89 days delinquent, also continue to remain at low levels, at $8.7 million, or 0.37% of total loans, at June 30, 2022. Net charge-offs for the current quarter were $42 thousand, compared to $179 thousand in the same quarter in 2021 and net charge-offs as a percentage of average net loans outstanding is only 0.01% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, compared to 0.04% in the same quarter in 2021.

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses and unfunded commitments of $616 thousand for the second quarter of 2022 compared to $50 thousand for the second quarter of 2021. The current quarter's growth in loans was the primary reason for the increase in the provision expense. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average net loans was 1 basis point for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, compared to 4 basis points for the second quarter of 2021.

The net interest margin for the three months ended June 30, 2022, was 3.25%, a 27 basis point decrease from the quarter ended June 30, 2021. In comparing the second quarter of 2022 to the same period in 2021, asset yields decreased 29 basis points, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 1 basis point. Most of the decrease in the asset yields was the result of deploying liquidity, in excess of loan growth, into lower yielding investment securities in the absence of loan growth and a decrease in PPP income compared to the same quarter a year ago.

The net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2022, was 3.25%, a 28 basis point decrease from the six months ended June 30, 2021. In comparing the six month period ended June 30, 2022 to the same six month period in 2021, asset yields decreased 35 basis points, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 10 basis points.

(1)The ratio is calculated by dividing noninterest expenses, less intangible amortization, by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income, less gain or loss on asset/security sales. The Company strives for a lower efficiency ratio. This efficiency ratio measure (non-GAAP) is not required by any regulatory agency but provides meaningful information to management and investors since a lower ratio indicates the Company is using their assets more effectively to generate profits.

For 2021, adjustments of $187 thousand and $1.1 million, respectively, are made to tax equate income on tax exempt loans and tax exempt securities. These adjustments are based on a marginal federal income tax rate of 21%, less disallowances.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income for the three month period ended June 30, 2022, was $31.7 million compared to $26.5 million for the same period in 2021. The increase in net interest income was driven by an increase in interest earning assets, including the acquisition of Cortland, offset by a reduction in PPP interest and fees. Interest and fees associated with PPP loans totaled $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $634 thousand in the second quarter of 2022. The net interest margin was 3.25% in the second quarter of 2022 compared to 3.52% for the second quarter of 2021. The decline in net interest margin in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021 was driven by the lower PPP income in 2022 compared to 2021 and a greater percentage of earning assets invested in securities rather than loans.

Net interest income for the six month period ended June 30, 2022, was $63.0 million compared to $51.8 million for the same period in 2021. The increase in net interest income was driven by many of the same factors as the second quarter increase. The net interest margin was 3.25% for the six month period ended June 30, 2022 compared to 3.53% for the same period in 2021. The decline in net interest margin for the six month period ended June 30, 2022 was also driven by many of the same factors as the second quarter decrease.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income decreased $31 thousand, to $9.5 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021. Net gains on the sale of loans decreased to $365 thousand in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2021. This drop was caused by lower production, compressed margins and a lower saleable mix due to the increase in interest rates in 2022. Service charges on deposit accounts were $1.1 million compared to $790 thousand for the second quarter of 2021 primarily due to the acquisition of Cortland and growth. BOLI income likewise increased due to the acquisition to $405 thousand in the second quarter of 2022 from $300 thousand for the second quarter of 2021. Debit card and EFT fees increased to $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2021. The increase was due to the acquisition and increased volumes. Other noninterest income increased by $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021. The increase was due to Cortland and increased income related to investments in SBIC funds.

Noninterest income for the six month period ended June 30, 2022, was $27.2 million compared to $19.6 million for the same period in 2021. The increase in noninterest income for the six month period ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to $8.4 million in legal settlement income that occurred in the first quarter of 2022.

Noninterest Expense. Total noninterest expense was $21.5 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared with $17.1 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Cortland, continued higher healthcare benefit costs and higher merger related costs in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the same quarter in 2021.

Total noninterest expense was $51.9 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2022 compared with $34.4 million for the same six month period in 2021. The increase is mostly due to the same factors as the quarterly increase, but also increased due to a $6.0 million charitable contribution to the Farmers Charitable Foundation and $2.1 million in legal expense associated with the legal settlement in the first quarter of 2022.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense totaled $3.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, and $3.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The effective tax rate for the three month period ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was 16.5% and 17.5%, respectively.

Income tax expense totaled $6.2 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2022, and $6.4 million for the same six month period ended June 30, 2021. The effective tax rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was 16.2% and 17.5%, respectively.

Financial Condition

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $47.3 million during the first six months of 2022 from $112.8 million to $65.5 million. The decrease in the cash balance is part of normal fluctuations on the Company's $4.1 billion balance sheet as well as cash being used to fund growth in the Company's loans and securities.

Securities. Securities available-for-sale decreased by $66.0 million since December 31, 2021 as the gross unrealized gain of $11.7 million on available for sale securities at December 31, 2021 declined to a gross unrealized loss of $206.1 million at June 30, 2022 due to the rise in U.S. treasury rates during the first six months. The Company also purchased securities totaling $201.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 offset by the proceeds from maturities, repayments and sales of securities totaling $46.9 million.

Loans. Gross loans (excluding loans held for sale) were $2.37 billion at June 30, 2022, compared to $2.33 billion at December 31, 2021. Gross loans increased $43.4 million during the first six months of 2022 as the second quarter exhibited broad based strength as the Company saw growth across every major loan category exclusive of PPP loans.

Due to a decrease in a specific reserve on one loan, and a continued decline in historical loss ratios, the Company recorded a credit provision for credit losses of $448 thousand for the six month period ended June 30, 2022, compared to the $475 thousand of credit loss provision recorded in the same period of 2021. The Company also recorded a $134 thousand and $706 thousand provision for unfunded loans for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The Company estimates the ACL based on the amortized cost basis of the underlying loan and has made an accounting policy election to exclude accrued interest from the loan’s amortized cost basis and the related measurement of the ACL. Estimating the amount of the ACL is a function of a number of factors, including but not limited to changes in the loan portfolio, net charge-offs, trends in past due and nonaccrual loans, and the level of potential problem loans, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of the total loan portfolio was 1.16% at June 30, 2022 and 1.26% at December 31, 2021. Early stage delinquencies, which are loans 30 - 89 days delinquent, as a percentage of total loans decreased from 0.38% at December 31, 2021, to 0.37% at June 30, 2022, and non-performing loans as a percentage of total loans decreased from 0.69% at December 31, 2021, to 0.59% at June 30, 2022. The allowance for credit losses to non-performing loans increased from 181.45% at December 31, 2021, to 194.61% at June 30, 2022.

Based on the evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses, management believes that the allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2022, is adequate. The provision for credit losses is based on management’s judgment after taking into consideration all factors connected with the collectability of the existing loan portfolio. Management estimates the allowance balance using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. Specific factors considered by management in determining the amounts charged to operating expenses include previous credit loss experience, the status of past due interest and principal payments, the quality of financial information supplied by loan customers and the general condition of the industries in the community to which loans have been made.

Deposits. Total deposits increased $78.3 million from December 31, 2021, to June 30, 2022, to a balance of $3.63 billion. The increase of $78.3 million since December 31, 2021 is due to seasonality in public fund balances and continued growth in business and consumer deposits. In addition, the Company added $55.0 million in brokered deposits during the first six months of 2022.

Borrowings. Total borrowing balances increased from $87.8 million at December 31, 2021 to $138.0 million at June 30, 2022, due to a $50 million FHLB advance.

Capital Resources. Total stockholders’ equity decreased $151.0 million, or 32.0%, during the six month period ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in stockholders’ equity was primarily due to an $172.1 million decline in accumulated other comprehensive income and dividends paid to shareholders offset by net income for the six month period ended June 30, 2022. The rapid increase in U.S. treasury rates has had a negative effect on the value of the Company’s available for sale securities, and in turn, the dollar amount that flows through accumulated other comprehensive income. Shareholders received $0.16 per share, per quarter, in cash dividends in the first two quarters of 2022. Book value per share decreased from $13.94 per share at December 31, 2021 to $9.45 per share at June 30, 2022.

The capital management function is a regular process that consists of providing capital for both the current financial position and the anticipated future growth of the Company. At June 30, 2022 the Company is required to maintain 4.5% common equity tier 1 to risk weighted assets excluding the conservation buffer to be adequately capitalized. The Company’s common equity tier 1 to risk weighted assets was 13.30%, total risk-based capital ratio stood at 17.46%, and the Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio and Tier 1 leverage ratio were at 13.92% and 9.56%, respectively, at June 30, 2022. The Company opted not to phase in, over 3 years, the effects of the initial CECL entry to equity for the implementation of ACS 326, recorded on January 1, 2021. Management believes that the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject, as of June 30, 2022.

Federal bank regulatory agencies finalized a rule that simplifies capital requirements for community banks by allowing them to adopt a simple leverage ratio to measure capital adequacy. The community bank leverage ratio framework removes requirements for calculating and reporting risk-based capital ratios for a qualifying community bank that opts into the framework.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company follows financial accounting and reporting policies that are in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These policies are presented in Note 1 of the consolidated audited financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report to Shareholders included in the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K. Critical accounting policies are those policies that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company has identified three accounting policies that are critical accounting policies and an understanding of these policies is necessary to understand the Company’s financial statements. These policies relate to determining the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses, for both the investment and loan portfolios and if there is any impairment of goodwill or other intangible. Additional information regarding these policies is included in the notes to the aforementioned 2021 consolidated financial statements, Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies), Note 2 (Business Combinations), Note 4 (Loans), and the sections captioned “Loan Portfolio.”

Securities classified as AFS are those securities that the Company intends to hold for an indefinite period of time, but not necessarily to maturity. Any decision to sell a security classified as AFS would be based on various factors, including significant movements in interest rates, changes in the maturity mix of the Company’s assets and liabilities, liquidity needs, regulatory capital considerations, and other similar factors.

The Company evaluates securities AFS in unrealized loss positions on a quarterly basis to determine whether the decline in fair value below the amortized costs basis (impairment) is due to credit-related factors or noncredit-related factors. In making this evaluation, management considers the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Company to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. Any impairment that is not credit-related is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of related deferred income taxes. Credit-related impairment is recognized as an allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on the balance sheet based on the amount by which the amortized cost basis exceeds the fair value, with a corresponding charge to net income. Both the ACL and the charge to net income may be reversed if conditions change. However, if the Company intends to sell an impaired AFS security or more likely than not will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount must be recognized in net income with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis rather than through the establishment of an ACL. The Company has recorded no ACL related to the investment portfolio as of June 30, 2022.

The ACL represents management’s estimate of expected credit losses in the Company’s loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The Company estimates the ACL based on the amortized cost basis of the underlying loan and has made an accounting policy election to exclude accrued interest from the loan’s amortized cost basis and the related measurement of the ACL. Estimating the amount of the ACL is a function of a number of factors, including but not limited to changes in the loan portfolio, net charge-offs, trends in past due and nonaccrual loans, and the level of potential problem loans, all of which may be susceptible to significant change.

Liquidity

The Company maintains, in the opinion of management, liquidity sufficient to satisfy depositors’ requirements and meet the credit needs of customers. The Company depends on its ability to maintain its market share of deposits as well as acquiring new funds. The Company’s ability to attract deposits and borrow funds depends in large measure on its profitability, capitalization and overall financial condition. The Company’s objective in liquidity management is to maintain the ability to meet loan commitments, purchase securities or to repay deposits and other liabilities in accordance with their terms without an adverse impact on current or future earnings. Principal sources of liquidity for the Company include assets considered relatively liquid, such as federal funds sold, cash-due from banks, as well as cash flows from maturities and repayments of loans, and to a lesser extent securities.

Along with its liquid assets, the Bank has additional sources of liquidity available which help to ensure that adequate funds are available as needed. These other sources include, but are not limited to, access to funds in the wholesale arena, the ability to obtain deposits

41

through the adjustment of interest rates and the purchasing of federal funds and borrowings on approved lines of credit at major domestic banks. At June 30, 2022, this line of credit totaled $35 million of which the Bank had not borrowed against. In addition, the Company has two revolving lines of credit with correspondent banks totaling $6.5 million. There was no balance on these lines at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Management feels that its liquidity position is adequate and will continue to monitor the position on a monthly basis. As of June 30, 2022, the Bank had outstanding balances with the FHLB of $50.0 million with additional borrowing capacity of approximately $645.2 million, as well as access to the Federal Reserve Discount Window, which provides an additional source of funds with the posting of collateral. The Bank views its membership in the FHLB as a solid source of liquidity.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of business, to meet the financial needs of our customers, we are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. These financial instruments generally include commitments to originate mortgage, commercial and consumer loans, and involve to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Bank’s maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the borrower is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Because some commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The same credit policies are used in making commitments as are used for on-balance sheet instruments. Collateral is required in instances where deemed necessary. Undisbursed balances of loans closed include funds not disbursed but committed for construction projects. Unused lines of credit include funds not disbursed, but committed for, home equity, commercial and consumer lines of credit. Financial standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily used to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. Total unused commitments were $612.1 million at June 30, 2022, and $606.8 million at December 31, 2021. Additionally, the Company committed up to $17.2 million in subscriptions in Small Business Investment Company investment funds. At June 30, 2022, the Company has invested $15.4 million in these funds.

Recent Market and Regulatory Developments

Various and significant legislation affecting financial institutions and the financial industry is from time to time introduced in the U.S. Congress and state legislatures, as well as by regulatory agencies. Such initiatives may include proposals to expand or contract the powers of bank holding companies and depository institutions or proposals to substantially change the financial institution regulatory system.

Also, such statutes, regulations and policies are continually under review by Congress, state legislatures and federal and state regulatory agencies and are subject to change at any time, particularly in the current economic and regulatory environment. Any such change in statutes, regulations or regulatory policies applicable to the Company could have a material effect on the business of the Company.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company’s ability to maximize net income is dependent, in part, on management’s ability to plan and control net interest income through management of the pricing and mix of assets and liabilities. Because a large portion of assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary in nature, changes in interest rates and monetary or fiscal policy affect its financial condition and can have significant impact on the net income of the Company.

The Company considers the primary market exposure to be interest rate risk. Simulation analysis is used to monitor the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates, and the effect of the change to net interest income. The following table shows the effect on net interest income and the net present value of equity in the event of a sudden and sustained 300 basis point increase or 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates:

Changes In Interest Rate (basis points)	June 30, 2022 Result			December 31, 2021 Result			ALCO Guidelines
Net Interest Income Change
+300		2.4	%		4.5	%		-10.0	%
+200		1.9	%		3.2	%		-7.5	%
+100		1.1	%		1.5	%		-5.0	%
-100		-4.5	%		-4.1	%		-5.0	%
Net Present Value Of Equity Change
+300		0.2	%		6.2	%		-10.0	%
+200		1.4	%		7.6	%		-7.5	%
+100		1.5	%		6.1	%		-5.0	%
-100		-7.2	%		-12.4	%		-10.0	%

The results of the simulations indicate that interest rate change results fall within internal limits established by the Company at June 30, 2022. It should be noted that the change in the net present value of equity exceeded policy at December 31, 2021, when the simulation model assumed a sudden decrease in rates of 100 basis points (1%). This was primarily due to the positive impact on the fair value of assets not being as great as the negative impact on the fair value of certain liabilities. Specifically, because core deposits typically bear relatively low interest rates, their fair value would be negatively impacted as the rates could not be adjusted by the full extent of the sudden decrease in rates. Management will continue to monitor any policy exceptions and may consider changes to the asset/liability position in the future. A report on interest rate risk is presented to the Board of Directors and the Asset/Liability Committee on a quarterly basis. It is management’s opinion that hedging instruments currently available are not a cost effective means of controlling interest rate risk for the Company. Accordingly, the Company does not currently use financial derivatives, such as interest rate options, swaps, caps, floors or other similar instruments, but does utilize swaps to accommodate large commercial borrowers that desire longer term fixed rates and mortgage banking derivatives that are not designated as hedge instruments.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Based on their evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective. There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a–15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is a defendant in lawsuits and other adversary proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Legal costs incurred in connection with the resolution of claims and lawsuits are generally expensed as incurred, although the Company establishes accruals where losses are deemed probable and reasonably estimable. The Company’s assessment of the current exposure with respect to adverse claims in legal matters could change in the event of the discovery of additional facts in such matters or upon determinations by judges, juries, administrative agencies or other finders of fact that are inconsistent with the Company’s evaluation of claims. It is possible that the ultimate resolution of matters, if unfavorable, may be material to the results of operations in a particular future period as the time and amount of any resolution of such actions and its relationship to the future results of operations are not known.

The Company is a defendant in a matter styled Kirt Banister v. Farmers National Bank of Canfield, Case No. 2022-cv-00214, pending in the Court of Common Pleas of Mahoning County, Ohio. The complaint, purportedly brought on behalf of a class consisting of all account holders within the six years preceding the filing of the complaint who were charged more than one NSF fee per item, alleges breach of contract and breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing and seeks damages in the form of all allegedly unauthorized NSF fees paid by the class. On July 22, 2022, the court denied the Company’s motion to dismiss the claims. The matter remains pending and Farmers intends to defend the matter vigorously. The Company is not able at this time to determine whether an adverse result in the matter is reasonably possible or the amount of such loss were it to occur.
