PROXY STATEMENT

MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc.

222 First Avenue East

Oskaloosa, Iowa 52577

INTRODUCTION

The enclosed Proxy is solicited by the Board of Directors of MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc., an Iowa corporation (the “Company”), for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on April 29, 2005, and at any adjournment thereof. The Proxy may be revoked at any time before it is exercised by submitting a later dated Proxy, by giving notice of such revocation to the Company in writing, or by attending and requesting such revocation at the Annual Meeting. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not in and of itself constitute the revocation of the Proxy. If the Proxy is not revoked, the shares represented thereby will be voted in the manner specified in the Proxy. A Proxy properly executed and received prior to the Annual Meeting which does not give specific voting instructions will be voted FOR the election of the nominees to the Board of Directors set forth herein and FOR the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as independent auditors for the current fiscal year and as the persons designated as proxies on the enclosed proxy card determine is in the best interests of the Company in any other business that may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment thereof. Abstentions will be treated as shares present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present, but not voted for purposes of determining the approval of any matter submitted to the shareholders for a vote. If a Proxy returned by a broker indicates that the broker does not have discretionary authority to vote some or all of the shares covered thereby for any matter submitted to the shareholders for a vote (broker non-votes), such shares will be considered to be present for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present, but will not be considered as entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

For participants in the MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan and Trust (the “ESOP”), the proxy card will also serve as a voting instruction card for MidWestOne Bank & Trust, the trustee of the ESOP (the “Trustee”), with respect to shares held in the participants’ accounts. A participant cannot direct the voting of shares allocated to the participant’s account in the ESOP unless the proxy card is signed and returned. If proxy cards representing shares in the ESOP are not returned, those shares will be voted by the Trustee in the same proportion as the shares for which signed proxy cards are returned by the other participants in the ESOP.

The cost of preparing, assembling, and mailing this Proxy Statement, the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders, and the accompanying Proxy is being borne by the Company. In addition to the solicitation by mail, officers, directors, and regular employees of the Company may solicit Proxies by telephone or personal interview. Such persons will receive no additional compensation for such services. Brokerage houses, nominees, fiduciaries, and other custodians will be requested to forward soliciting material to the beneficial owners of shares held of record by them and will be reimbursed by the Company for their reasonable expenses.

The record date for shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting is the close of business on February 25, 2005, at which time the Company had issued and outstanding 3,769,166 shares of Common Stock, and all of those shares are eligible to vote at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on any matter that may properly come before the meeting.

This Proxy Statement, the enclosed Proxy, and the attached Notice were first sent to shareholders on approximately March 21, 2005.

PROPOSAL 1

Election Of Directors

Four directors are to be elected at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders by holders of Common Stock to serve until the Annual Meeting of Shareholders at which their respective term expires and until their respective successor has been elected and qualified. The Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company state that the Board of Directors of the Company shall set the size of the Board of Directors in a range of not less than five directors nor greater than fifteen directors. The Board of Directors set the size for the current Board of Directors at nine individuals. The Nominating Committee and the Board of Directors have identified Barbara J. Kniff to fill the vacancy on the Board caused by the retirement of William D. Hassel effective March 31, 2004. A non-management director recommended Ms. Kniff to the Nominating Committee. Because of the retirement of John W. N. Steddom effective December 31, 2004, there will be one vacancy on the Board for which the Nominating Committee and the Board of Directors have not identified a qualified nominee as of the date of this Proxy Statement. The Board of Directors has no present intention to fill this vacancy at the Annual Meeting; however, under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, the Board of Directors may fill such vacancy at any time. At the date of this Proxy Statement, the Board does not have any arrangement, understanding or commitment to any person concerning nomination or election to the Board, other than those persons listed under the caption “Election of Directors” herein.

Each shareholder of record shall be entitled to as many votes as the total of the number of shares of Common Stock, $5.00 par value per share, held of record by such shareholder. Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named. The Company does not have cumulative voting.

Under applicable provisions of Iowa law and the Bylaws of the Company, a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company entitled to vote, represented in person or by Proxy, constitute a quorum. If a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors in the manner set forth above will be required to elect directors.

In the absence of instructions to the contrary, the Proxies solicited by the Board of Directors will be voted in favor of the election of the nominees identified in the following table, all of whom are members of the present Board of Directors other than Barbara J. Kniff.

The nominees and the directors of the Company whose terms continue beyond the 2005 Annual Meeting of Shareholders are identified in the following table. The term for which nominees Charles S. Howard, David A. Meinert, and James G. Wake are nominated will expire at the 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, and the term for which nominee Barbara J. Kniff is nominated will expire at the 2006 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Except as may be otherwise expressly stated, the nominees for director have been employed in the capacities indicated for more than five years. Additional information regarding these nominees and each director as of February 25, 2005, is set forth in the following table. The number of shares of Common Stock of the Company beneficially owned by each of the nominees and directors as of February 25, 2005, is set forth on pages 12 and 13.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE BOARD AND ITS COMMITTEES

Board Meetings

Twelve regularly scheduled meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company were held during 2004. Each director other than John W. N. Steddom attended at least 75 percent of the Board meetings and any meetings of committees on which he served. Mr. Steddom retired from the Board of Directors as of December 31, 2004 due to health reasons. Mr. Steddom was able to attend six meetings of the Board of Directors, two meetings of the Compensation Committee, and two meetings of the Nominating Committee during 2004. The Board has an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Nominating Committee. To promote open discussion among the independent directors (those directors who are not officers or employees of the Company), the independent directors meet in executive session a minimum of two times per year. The Company strongly encourages all Board members to attend the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. All Board members other than Mr. Steddom attended the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held in 2004.

Committee Membership and Meetings

The Audit Committee consists of Richard R. Donohue, as Chairperson, Michael R. Welter, and Edward C. Whitham, all of whom are independent directors under criteria established by the Securities and Exchange Commission and NASDAQ. Based on the attributes, education and experience requirements required by NASD Rule 4350(d)(2)(A), the requirements set forth in Section 407 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and associated regulations, the Board of Directors has identified Richard R. Donohue as an “Audit Committee Financial Expert” as defined under Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K and has determined him to be “independent.” The Audit Committee recommends independent auditors to the Board, reviews with the independent auditors the plan, scope and results of the auditors’ services, approves their fees and reviews the Company’s financial reporting and internal control functions. The Audit Committee also performs the duties set forth in its written charter, which has been adopted by the Board of Directors. A copy of the Audit Committee Charter is attached to this Proxy Statement as Exhibit A. The Committee is also prepared to meet privately at any time at the request of the independent public accountants or members of management to review any special situation arising on any of the above subjects. Reference is made to the “Report of the Audit Committee.” The Audit Committee met five times during 2004. None of the Audit Committee members serve on any other audit committee of a listed company.

During 2004, the Compensation Committee consisted of John W. N. Steddom, as Chairperson, Richard R. Donohue, James G. Wake, Michael R. Welter, and Edward C. Whitham, all of whom are independent directors under criteria established by the Securities and Exchange Commission and NASDAQ. The Compensation Committee reviews the Company’s compensation and benefit policies, including the individual salaries of the executive officers and makes recommendations to the Board of Directors as to the salary of the Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President. The Compensation Committee also performs the duties set forth in its Report of Executive Compensation. Reference is made to the “Report of the Compensation Committee.” The Compensation Committee also performs the duties set forth in its written charter, which was adopted by the Compensation Committee in December 2004. A copy of the Compensation Committee Charter is attached to this Proxy Statement as Exhibit B. The Compensation Committee met two times during 2004.

The Company’s Nominating Committee was established during early 2004. The Committee consisted of Edward C. Whitham, as Chairperson, Richard R. Donohue, John W. N. Steddom, James G. Wake, and Michael R. Welter, all of whom are independent directors under criteria established by the Securities and Exchange Commission and NASDAQ. This Committee makes recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding the composition and structure of the Board and nominations for election of directors. This Committee recommended to the Board the director-nominees proposed in this Proxy Statement for election by the shareholders. It reviews the qualifications of, and recommends to the Board, candidates to fill Board vacancies that occur during the year. The Nominating Committee also performs the duties set forth in its written charter, a copy of which was attached to the Proxy filed in 2004. The Charter, among other things, contains information regarding the composition of

4

the Board of Directors and selection criteria used by the Committee. This Committee will consider, as part of its nomination process, any director candidate recommended by a shareholder of the Company who follows the procedures shown under the heading “2006 Shareholder Proposals.” When identifying and evaluating nominees to the Company’s board of directors, the Nominating Committee reviews current directors of the Company, reviews current directors of the Company’s banking subsidiaries, solicits input from existing directors and executive officers, and reviews submissions from shareholders, if any. The Nominating Committee met four times in 2004.

Directors’ Compensation

From January 1, 2004 through March 31, 2004, non-employee directors of the Company were paid a quarterly fee in advance based upon an annual retainer of $2,500, plus a fee for meetings attended. From April 1, 2004 through December 31, 2004, non-employee directors of the Company were paid a quarterly fee in advance based upon an annual retainer of $3,000, plus a fee for meetings attended. From January 1, 2004 through March 31, 2004, each non-employee director was paid $350 per regular and special meeting for directors’ meetings attended and $50 per meeting for committee meetings attended. From April 1, 2004 through December 31, 2004, each non-employee director was paid $450 per regular and special meeting for directors’ meetings attended and $150 per meeting for committee meetings attended. No employee directors are paid directors’ fees. After one year of service as a director, non-employee directors are also entitled to annual option grants under the Company’s 1998 Stock Incentive Plan pursuant to a formula based on the financial performance of the Company for the fiscal year. On April 30, 2004, each non-employee director of MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries was granted a non-qualified stock option for 1,379 shares at an exercise price of $18.52 per share. The number of shares to be awarded pursuant to non-qualified stock options for non-employee directors is determined by dividing the fair market value (the bid price) of the underlying shares on the date of grant of the options into five percent of the pre-tax profits of the Company for the previous fiscal year. The number of shares so determined is then allocated equally among the eligible non-employee directors on the date of grant of the options (the date of the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company).

The Company offers the option to the directors to defer receipt of all or a portion of the cash that would have been paid as directors’ fees. The deferred fees are invested by the Company, and the director is an unsecured general creditor of the Company. At the time the deferral election is made, the director specifies the amount of the fees to be deferred and the duration of the deferral. The deferred fees are credited with interest based upon the return on average tangible equity of the Company based upon an average of the last three fiscal years.

Employment Contracts and Termination of Employment and Change-In-Control Arrangements

The Company presently has no employment contracts with the named executive officers of the Company. The Company does maintain a salary continuation plan for the named executive officers of the Company. The benefits provided pursuant to such salary continuation plan are listed in the section “Executive Compensation” in Footnote 2. The salary continuation plan contains a change-in-control provision which applies in the event that there is both a change in control of the Company and the employment of the particular named executive officer is terminated with the Company within 24 months after such change in control. In such event, the change-in-control benefit is paid to the employee in a lump sum within 90 days following termination of employment. The amount of the change-in-control benefit is determined by vesting the employee in 100 percent of the normal retirement benefit the employee would otherwise have been entitled to receive pursuant to the salary continuation plan.

REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION FOR MIDWESTONE FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company reviews and approves the Company’s executive compensation policies and evaluates the performance of the executive officers. In 2004, the Compensation Committee consisted of Richard R. Donohue, John W. N. Steddom, James G. Wake, Michael R. Welter, and Edward C. Whitham. All members of the Committee attended the two meetings held during the fiscal year. All members of the Compensation Committee are independent directors and there are no Compensation Committee interlocks.

Compensation Philosophy

The philosophy of the Compensation Committee in setting its compensation policies for executive officers is to maximize stockholder value over time. The Compensation Committee believes that executive compensation should be directly linked to continuous improvements in corporate performance and increases in stockholder value. In this regard, the Compensation Committee has adopted the following guidelines for compensation decisions:

• Provide a competitive total compensation package that enables the Company to attract and retain key executive talent.

• Align executive compensation programs with the Company’s annual and long-term business strategies and objectives.

• Provide variable compensation opportunities that are directly linked to the performance of the Company and the performance of the individual employee.

The Compensation Committee focuses primarily on the following three components in forming the total compensation package for its executive officers:

• Base salary

• Annual incentive bonus

• Long-term incentives

Base Salary

The Compensation Committee intends to compensate the executive officers competitively within the industry. In order to evaluate the Company’s competitive posture in the industry, the Compensation Committee reviews and analyzes the compensation packages, including base salary levels, offered by its peer group. In addition, the Compensation Committee, together with the Board of Directors, subjectively evaluates the level of performance of each executive officer in order to determine current and future appropriate base pay levels.

The Compensation Committee reviewed the compensation of the President and Executive Vice President and recommended an increase of four percent in the base salary of the President and an increase of four percent in the base salary of the Executive Vice President. The recommendations for the President and Executive Vice President were based upon peer review data, levels of responsibility, breadth of knowledge, prior experience, management recommendations for other employees, cost of living, and performance.

Annual Incentive Bonus

The Company uses a “Performance Compensation Plan” (the “Plan”) for employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Plan is designed to assist the Board of Directors and management in communicating to the employees the goal of profitable growth.

Each employee participating in the Plan is eligible to be considered to receive an annual bonus based upon pre-tax profits. At the bank subsidiary level, the Plan focuses on pre-tax profits at the individual bank plus the overall profitability of the Company. At the holding company level, the Plan focuses on consolidated budgeted pre-tax profits for the holding company. For the employees of the holding company, the Plan provides that a bonus pool will be created in the amount of 2 percent of the consolidated budgeted pre-tax profits for the Company. The size of the pool is then adjusted by a formula upward or downward depending upon how actual profits compared to budget. The amount of the pool is then allocated among three groups by the designated percentage amounts and leaves 20 percent to be allocated at the discretion of the Committee. The President and the Executive Vice President receive an aggregate of 25 percent of the pool, which is allocated proportionately between them based upon base compensation. Additionally, the Board of Directors retains the discretion to

9

deviate from the Plan if warranted. The Compensation Committee recommended payment of the annual incentive bonus to the President and the Executive Vice President pursuant to the Plan formula. The Committee did not recommend that any of the discretionary pool be awarded for 2004.

Long-term Incentives

The Company provides its executive officers with long-term incentive compensation through grants of stock options. The Compensation Committee is responsible for determining the individuals to whom grants should be made, the timing of grants, the exercise price per share, and the number of shares subject to each option. Other than the stock options, the Compensation Committee made no other long-term performance awards during the last fiscal year. The stock option grants are discretionary grants by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee takes into consideration the profits of the Company during the most recent fiscal year, the profit trend line of the Company, the position of the employee, peer review of similar companies, and the total compensation package of the eligible employees in determining the amount of the grants.

The Compensation Committee believes that stock options provide the Company’s executive officers with the opportunity to purchase and maintain an equity interest in the Company and to share in the appreciation of the value of the stock. The Compensation Committee believes that stock options directly motivate an executive to maximize long-term stockholder value and help align the focus of the executive officers with the interests of the shareholders. The options also utilize vesting periods in order to encourage key employees to continue in the employ of the Company. All options to executive officers to date have been granted at the fair market value of the Company’s common stock determined on the basis of the bid price of the stock. All options for 2004 were granted at the bid price of the stock on December 31, 2004. The amount of the stock option awards is reflected in the compensation table for the executive officers.

Summary

The Compensation Committee believes that its executive compensation philosophy of paying its executive officers well by means of competitive base salaries, annual bonuses, and long-term incentives, as described in this report, serves the interests of the Company and the Company’s stockholders.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

The following discussion and analysis is intended as a review of significant factors affecting the financial condition and results of operation of MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) for the periods indicated. The discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto.

“Safe Harbor” Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act

With the exception of the historical information contained in this report, the matters described herein contain forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties that individually or mutually impact the matters herein described, including but not limited to financial projections, product demand and market acceptance, the effect of economic conditions, the impact of competitive products and pricing, governmental regulations, results of litigation, technological difficulties and/or other factors outside the control of the Company, which are detailed from time to time in the Company’s SEC reports. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements. The Company’s actual results could differ significantly from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

Overview

The Company’s principal business is conducted by its four subsidiary banks and consists of full service community-based commercial and retail banking. In 2004, the Company enhanced its non-banking service offering through the addition of a retail brokerage and financial planning subsidiary. Additionally, the Company derives a substantial portion of its operating revenue from its investments in pools of performing and nonperforming loans referred to as loan pool participations. The profitability of the Company depends primarily on its net interest income, provision for loan losses, other income, and operating expenses.

Net interest income is the difference between total interest income and total interest expense. Interest income is earned by the Company on its loans made to customers, the investment securities it holds in its portfolio, and the interest and discount recovery generated from its loan pool participations. The interest expense incurred by the Company results from the interest paid on customer deposits and borrowed funds. Fluctuations in net interest income can result from the changes in volumes of assets and liabilities as well as changes in market interest rates. The provision for loan losses reflects the cost of credit risk in the Company’s loan portfolio and is dependent on increases in the loan portfolio and management’s assessment of the collectibility of the loan portfolio under current economic conditions. Other income consists of service charges on deposit accounts, fees received for data processing services provided to nonaffiliated banks, mortgage loan origination fees, other fees and commissions, and realized security gains or losses. Operating expenses include salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment expenses, professional fees, other noninterest expenses, and the amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets. These operating expenses are significantly influenced by the growth of operations, with additional employees necessary to staff new banking centers.

Acquisition of Koogler Company of Iowa

On July 30, 2004, the Company acquired Koogler Company of Iowa (“KCI”), a sole proprietorship, which was a retail brokerage and financial planner. The identifiable intangible asset acquired was a customer list, with the remainder of the purchase price allocated to goodwill. The acquisition was part cash and part stock, and was accounted for as a purchase transaction. The Company formed a new wholly-owned subsidiary called MidWestOne Investment Services, Inc. to provide retail brokerage and financial planning services throughout the banking offices of the Company. Revenues and expenses related to the new activity were reflected on the Company’s books from August 1, 2004 forward.

Acquisition of Belle Plaine Service Corp.

On February 1, 2003, the Company acquired the Belle Plaine Service Corp. (“BPSC”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Citizens Bank & Trust (“CB&T”) of Hudson, Iowa in a 100 percent cash transaction. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction with revenues and expenses reflected on the Company’s books from February 1, 2003 forward. As of February 1, 2003, BPSC had total assets of $77,602,000, loans totaling $61,010,000, and deposits of $62,940,000. The Company’s results of operation for the year ended December 31, 2002 does not include any income or expense related to BPSC. CB&T was subsequently merged with another of the Company’s subsidiary banks on June 14, 2003.

Performance Summary

For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company recorded net income of $5,829,000, or $1.54 per share basic and $1.50 per share diluted. This compares with $5,926,000, or $1.54 per share basic and $1.50 per share diluted, for the year ended December 31, 2003. Net income was $97,000 or 2 percent lower in 2004. An increase in net interest income was offset by greater loan loss provision, a reduction in noninterest income and increased noninterest expense.

Total assets of the Company increased $27,258,000 or 4 percent to a year-end 2004 total of $650,564,000 compared with a 2003 total of $623,306,000. The Company’s total loans outstanding increased $21,837,000 or 6 percent in 2004 to $398,854,000 at December 31, 2004. Loan pool participations as of December 31, 2004 totaled $105,502,000, an increase of 18 percent from the year-end 2003 balance of $89,059,000. Deposits increased $21,977,000 or 5 percent to $475,102,000 as of December 31, 2004.

Return on average assets is a measure of profitability that indicates how effectively a financial institution utilizes its assets. It is calculated by dividing net income by average total assets. The Company’s return on average assets was .92 percent for 2004, .98 percent for 2003 and 1.07 percent for 2002. Net income for 2004 was slightly lower while average assets increased during the year, thus reducing the return on average assets in 2004. Return on average equity indicates what the Company earned on its shareholders’ investment and is calculated by dividing net income by average total shareholders’ equity. The return on average equity for the Company was 10.23 percent for 2004, 10.52 percent for 2003 and 10.91 percent for 2002. Return on average equity declined in 2004 reflecting the lower earnings of the Company and an increase in average total shareholders’ equity.

Results of Operations

2004 Compared to 2003

Net Interest Income.    Net interest income is the total of interest income less interest expense. Net interest income increased $1,191,000 or 5 percent in 2004 to $24,002,000 compared with $22,811,000 in 2003. The net interest spread, which is the difference between the yield earned on assets and the rate paid on liabilities, increased to 3.84 percent in 2004 from 3.77 percent in 2003. Net interest margin is a measurement of the net return on interest-earning assets and is computed by dividing net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the year by the annual average balance of all interest-earning assets. The net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis (FTE) for 2004 was 4.13 percent compared to 4.10 percent for 2003. The following table presents a comparison of the average balance of earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities, interest income and expense, and average yields and costs for the years 2004 and 2003.

Total interest income for 2004 was $37,372,000 compared with $37,578,000 for 2003. Interest income and fees on loans were $9,000 lower in 2004. The average yield on the Company’s loan portfolio was 6.11 percent for 2004 versus 6.52 percent in 2003, reflecting the cumulative effects of repricing loans at lower market interest rates. The increase in interest rates during the second half of 2004 did not offset the previously repriced loans in the portfolio, thus causing a reduction in the overall portfolio yield. The average volume of loans outstanding for the year was $24,377,000 or 7 percent higher for 2004 in comparison to 2003 due to loan growth. Loans

A-3

outstanding averaged $391,131,000 in 2004 compared with $366,754,000 for 2003. Interest and discount on loan pools was 5 percent or $410,000 greater in 2004 due to a higher average balance throughout the year and an increase in the yield. The average loan pool balance for 2004 was $89,430,000 compared with $85,959,000 in 2003. The average yield on loan pools rose slightly to 10.50 percent in 2004 from 10.45 percent in 2003. Loan pool income is affected by the settlement of nonperforming loans that result in the recognition of discount recovery when loan collections exceed purchase price. During 2004, the settlement and collection of nonperforming loans contributed significantly to the overall income derived from the loan pools. Interest on bank deposits decreased $6,000 in 2004 due to lower market interest rates and lower balances. Interest income on investment securities was $624,000 or 13 percent lower in 2004 as a result of a $3,756,000 lower average balance and lower market rates. The average tax-equivalent yield on the investment portfolio declined to 4.18 percent for 2004 compared with 4.63 percent in 2003 as maturing securities were reinvested and new securities were purchased at lower market rates. Interest income from federal funds sold was $23,000 greater in 2004 due to higher average balance and rising market interest rates. The overall yield on earning assets was 6.37 percent in 2004 compared with 6.68 percent for 2003. Average total earning assets were $23,986,000 higher in 2004 compared with 2003.

A decrease in interest expense for 2004 helped to offset the lack of revenue growth for the year. Total interest expense was $1,397,000 or 9 percent lower in 2004 reflecting the effects of the low market interest rate environment. Interest expense on deposits was $1,705,000 or 17 percent lower in 2004. The average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits decreased to 1.98 percent for 2004 compared with 2.42 percent in 2003. Average interest-bearing deposits were $6,373,000 greater in 2004 compared with 2003 due to growth in interest-bearing demand deposits and savings deposits. Many of the Company’s certificate of deposit customers have opted for shorter maturity certificates of deposits and have also placed their funds in more liquid money market accounts. When market interest rates move higher, these certificates and money market deposits will reprice more quickly at the higher rate and may increase the cost of funds in future periods. Interest expense on immediately-repriceable deposits such as NOW and savings accounts could also increase as rates move upward. The Federal Home Loan Bank advances utilized by the Company are at fixed rates that do not reprice but may be called prior to maturity. The average rate on Federal Home Loan Bank advances declined to 4.83 percent in 2004 from 5.49 percent in 2003 as advances with higher rates matured. Interest expense on other borrowed funds such as federal funds purchased and notes payable increased in 2004 mainly as a result of the higher interest rate environment in the second half of the year and also due to increased balances in these categories. The overall rate on paying liabilities for 2004 was 2.53 percent for 2004 compared with 2.91 percent in 2003.

Provision for Loan Losses.    The provision for loan losses recorded by the Company for 2004 was $858,000, an increase of $269,000 or 46 percent, compared with the provision of $589,000 for 2003. Management determines an appropriate provision based on its evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses in relationship to a continuing review of current collection risks within its loan portfolio, identified problem loans, the current local and national economic conditions, actual loss experience, regulatory policies, and industry trends.

Other Income.    Other income decreased $82,000 or 2 percent in 2004 to $4,276,000. This compares with other income of $4,358,000 for 2003. The Company realized $226,000 from security gains in 2004 and $175,000 in 2003. Excluding security gains realized, other income was $4,050,000 for 2004 and $4,183,000 for 2003. Service charges increased in 2004 while data processing income, secondary market real estate loan origination fees and other operating income declined. Much of the decrease in mortgage origination fees was the result of the slowdown in customers refinancing real estate loans as market interest rates increased. Depending on future interest rates, the level of refinancing activity may change. If the refinancing activity slows, mortgage origination fee income may be reduced in subsequent periods.

Other Expense.    Noninterest expense totaled $18,513,000 for 2004 compared with $17,387,000 for 2003, an increase of $1,126,000 or 6 percent. Salaries and employee benefits increased $871,000 or 9 percent in 2004 due to the additional employees of the acquired KCI, increased salary expense, greater health insurance costs and increased other benefit costs. Net occupancy expense increased $348,000 or 12 percent in 2004 mainly due to

A-4

higher depreciation expense on a new mainframe computer placed in service early in 2004 and also due to additional depreciation expense on new check-processing machines placed in service late in 2003. Professional fees were $148,000 or 21 percent higher in 2004 compared with 2003 primarily due to higher legal fees. Other operating expense declined $205,000 in 2004 reflecting reduced supplies and other miscellaneous expenses.

Income Tax Expense.    Income taxes decreased $189,000 in 2004 compared with 2003. The amount of income before tax was lower in 2004, thus decreasing income tax expense. The Company’s consolidated income tax rate varies from the statutory rate mainly due to tax-exempt income. The 2004 effective income tax as a percentage of income before tax was 34.6 percent, compared with 35.5 percent for 2003.

2003 Compared to 2002

Net Interest Income.    Net interest income increased $2,298,000 or 11 percent in 2003 to $22,811,000 compared with $20,513,000 in 2002.

The average yield on the Company’s loan portfolio was 6.52 percent for 2003 versus 7.30 percent in 2002 reflecting the lower market interest rates. The average volume of loans outstanding for the year was $53,713,000 or 17 percent higher for 2003 in comparison to 2002 due to loan growth and the acquisition of BPSC. Loans outstanding averaged $366,754,000 in 2003 compared with $313,041,000 for 2002. Interest and discount on loan pools was 11 percent or $1,073,000 lower in 2003 due to a lower average balance throughout the year. The average yield on loan pools declined slightly to 10.45 percent in 2003 from 10.60 percent in 2002. The average loan pool balance for 2003 was $85,959,000 compared with $94,861,000 in 2002. Loan pool income is affected by the settlement of nonperforming loans that result in the recognition of discount recovery when loan collections exceed purchase price. During 2003, the settlement and collection of nonperforming loans contributed significantly to the overall income derived from the loan pools. Interest on bank deposits decreased $12,000 or 53 percent in 2003 due to lower market interest rates. Interest income on investment securities was $162,000 or 4 percent greater in 2003 as a result of a $17,051,000 higher average balance. Lower market interest rates reduced the increase in interest income related to the higher balance.

Analysis of Financial Condition

Loans

The Company’s loan portfolio totals increased $21,837,000 or 6 percent to $398,854,000 on December 31, 2004 from $377,017,000 on December 31, 2003. As of December 31, 2004, the Company’s loan to deposit ratio was 84.0 percent, compared with 83.2 percent at December 31, 2003.

The Company’s total real estate loans (including 1-4 family residential, commercial, agricultural, construction, and multi-family real estate) were $264,522,000 as of December 31, 2004 compared with $249,768,000 as of December 31, 2003. Real estate loans of all types are the Company’s largest category of loans, comprising 66.3 percent of total loans at year-end 2004 and 66.2 percent at December 31, 2003. Commercial loans are the next largest category of loans at December 31, 2004, totaling approximately $70,104,000 compared with $60,532,000 at December 31, 2003. As a percentage of the Company’s total loans as of December 31, 2004 agricultural loans were 13.4 percent compared with 14.9 percent as of December 31, 2003. Agricultural loans totaled $53,545,000 on December 31, 2004 compared with $56,036,000 in 2003. The remaining 2.7 percent of the portfolio as of December 31, 2004 consisted of $10,683,000 in consumer and other loans.

Investment in Loan Pools

The Company invests in pools of performing and nonperforming loans categorized as loan pool participations. These loan pool participations are purchased at a discount from the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the underlying loans. Income is derived from this investment in the form of interest collected and the repayment of principal in excess of the purchase cost which is herein referred to as “discount.”

At year-end 2004, the Company’s loan pool participation total was $105,502,000 compared with $89,059,000 in 2003, an increase of $16,443,000 or 18 percent. The average loan pool participation investment for 2004 was $89,430,000 compared with an average of $85,959,000 for 2003. Loan pool participation purchases made by the Company during 2004 totaled $61,511,000 compared with net purchases of $47,374,000 in 2003. Approximately 38 percent of the loan pool purchases for the year 2004 were made in December. These purchases did not contribute to any increased earnings for 2004 due to the short time that they were on the Company’s books. Throughout 2004, loan pool participations represented 15.2 percent of average earning assets while in 2003 they represented 15.3 percent of average earning assets. The yield on loan pool participation investments remained constant at 10.5 percent for 2004 and 2003.

Investment Securities

The Company manages its investment portfolio to provide both a source of liquidity and earnings. The portfolio largely consists of U.S. Government agency securities, corporate securities, mortgage-backed securities,

A-6

and municipal bonds. Investment securities available for sale totaled $87,795,000 on December 31, 2004 compared to $100,848,000 at December 31, 2003. Available for sale securities balances were reduced to fund loan growth and to fund purchases of loan pool participations in 2004. Securities classified as held to maturity decreased by $1,406,000 to a balance of $9,190,000 on December 31, 2004 as proceeds from these maturing investments were reinvested in loans or loan pool participations.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill totaled $13,156,000 on December 31, 2004 compared to $12,976,000 as of December 31, 2003, with the increase due to the KCI acquisition. Goodwill is subject to annual testing for impairment in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 142. No impairment write-down of goodwill has been necessary. Other intangible assets increased to $1,318,000 as of December 31, 2004 as a result of the acquisition of KCI and the associated customer list. Amortization of intangible assets is recorded using an accelerated method based on the estimated life of the core deposit intangible and the estimated life of customer lists. Other intangible assets totaled $1,244,000 on December 31, 2003.

Deposits

Total deposits were $475,102,000 on December 31, 2004 compared with $453,125,000 as of December 31, 2003, an increase of $21,977,000 or 5 percent. Deposit growth occurred mainly in the noninterest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing demand, savings and money-market deposit categories. Time deposits were the largest component of the Company’s deposit base representing approximately 49.6 percent of total deposits on December 31, 2004. Savings and money market accounts were the next largest category at 26.4 percent, while interest-bearing demand deposits comprised 14.3 percent and non-interest-bearing demand deposits were 9.7 percent of total deposits at year-end. The Company does not utilize brokered deposits as a source of funds. There were some brokered deposits that were acquired with the BPSC organization, but these deposits have not been retained as they matured. No brokered deposits remained as of December 31, 2004.

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances

As of December 31, 2004, the Company’s subsidiaries had borrowed $91,874,000 in fixed-rate advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines.

Notes Payable

As of December 31, 2004, the Company had $5,000,000 borrowed on a term note that matures November 30, 2006. The Company also had borrowed $4,700,000 on its revolving line of credit. The Company maintains a revolving line arrangement that provides for a maximum line of $9,000,000 and matures on March 31, 2005. Both of these credit facilities are priced on a variable basis at the national prime rate less .30 percent.

The Company acquired 100 percent of KCI on July 30, 2004. This transaction required the Company to draw on its revolving line of credit to fund a portion of the acquisition. The Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures as of December 31, 2004.

Trust Preferred Security

On June 20, 2002, the Company obtained $10,310,000 in long-term subordinated debt from its participation in the issuance of a pooled trust preferred security. This security is a hybrid capital instrument that is included in Tier 1 capital for regulatory purposes, yet is non-dilutive to common shareholders and to return on equity. The trust preferred has a 30-year maturity, does not require any principal amortization and is callable in five years at

A-7

par at the issuer’s option. The interest rate is variable based on the 3-month Libor rate plus 3.65 percent, with the interest payable quarterly.

Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2004, total shareholders’ equity was $56,930,000. Total equity increased by $786,000 in 2004 from $56,144,000 at December 31, 2003 as a result of the retention of earnings, which was partially offset by unrealized losses arising during the year on securities available for sale. In May 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase of up to $2,000,000 of the common shares outstanding for the period ending December 31, 2004. During the period from May 27 through August 31, 2004, the Company repurchased 107,500 shares of stock on the open market at an average cost of $18.58 per share. As payment for the exercise of options, 7,879 shares were reacquired by the Company. Treasury stock totaling 6,601 shares were reissued to acquire Koogler. A total of 77,456 shares were reissued upon the exercise of stock options throughout 2004, resulting in 3,751,386 shares outstanding at December 31, 2004.

Shareholders’ equity as a percentage of total assets was 8.8 percent on December 31, 2004, versus 9.0 percent on December 31, 2003. Tangible shareholders’ equity was 6.7 percent at the end of 2004 compared with 6.9 percent at year-end 2003. Tangible equity is the ratio of shareholders’ equity less goodwill and intangible assets in proportion to total assets less goodwill and intangible assets.

The Company’s risk-based Tier 1 core capital ratio was 10.9 percent as of December 31, 2004, and the Total Capital ratio was 12.1 percent. Risk-based capital guidelines require the classification of assets and some off-balance-sheet items in terms of credit-risk exposure and the measuring of capital as a percentage of the risk-adjusted asset totals. Tier 1 core capital is the Company’s total common shareholders’ equity plus the $10,310,000 trust preferred security, reduced by goodwill. Total Capital adds the allowance for loan losses to the Tier 1 capital amount. As of December 31, 2003, the Company’s Tier 1 capital ratio was 11.2 percent, and the Total Capital ratio was 12.5 percent. They substantially exceeded the minimum regulatory requirements of 4.0 percent for Tier 1 capital and 8.0 percent for Total Capital. The Company’s Tier 1 Leverage ratio, which measures Tier 1 capital in relation to total assets, was 8.5 percent as of December 31, 2004 and 8.4 percent at December 31, 2003, exceeding the regulatory minimum requirement range of 3.0 percent to 5.0 percent.

A-8

The Company’s common stock closed the year 2004 at $20.96 per share, representing 1.38 times the December 31, 2004 book value per share of $15.18. The book value per share was $14.84 on December 31, 2003. Tangible book value per share was $11.32 on December 31, 2004 compared with $11.08 on December 31, 2003.

Liquidity

Liquidity management involves the ability to meet the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers. Liquidity management is conducted by the Company on both a daily and long-term basis. The Company adjusts its investments in liquid assets based upon management’s assessment of expected loan demand, projected loan sales, expected deposit flows, yields available on interest-bearing deposits, and the objectives of its asset/liability management program. Excess liquidity is invested generally in short-term U.S. Government and agency securities, short-term state and political subdivision securities, and other investment securities.

Liquid assets of cash on hand, balances due from other banks, and federal funds sold are maintained to meet customer needs. The Company had liquid assets of $15,415,000 as of December 31, 2004, compared with $14,540,000 as of December 31, 2003. Investment securities classified as available for sale and securities and loans maturing within one year totaled $186,884,000 and $184,713,000 as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Assets maturing within one year, combined with liquid assets, were 42.6 percent at December 31, 2004 and 44.0 percent at December 31, 2003 of total deposits as of the same dates.

The Company’s principal sources of funds are deposits, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank, principal repayments on loans, proceeds from the sale of loans, principal recoveries on loan pool participations, proceeds from the maturity and sale of investment securities, its commercial bank line of credit, and funds provided by operations. While scheduled loan amortization and maturing interest-bearing deposits are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by economic conditions, the general level of interest rates, and competition. Principal recoveries on loan pool participations are also influenced by economic conditions and to a lesser extent, the interest rate environment. The Company utilizes particular sources of funds based on comparative costs and availability. This includes fixed-rate advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank that were obtained at a more favorable cost than deposits. The Company generally manages the pricing of its deposits to maintain a steady deposit base but has from time to time decided not to pay rates on deposits as high as its competition.

Net cash provided by operations is another major source of liquidity. The net cash provided by operating activities was $7,211,000 in 2004. This trend of strong cash from operations is expected to continue into the foreseeable future.

The Company anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to fund its loan commitments. As of December 31, 2004, the Company had outstanding commitments to extend credit of $66,086,000 and had commitments to sell loans of $204,000. Certificates of deposit maturing in one year or less totaled $116,749,000 as of December 31, 2004. Management believes that a significant portion of these deposits will remain with the Company.

The declaration of dividends are subject to, among other things, the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, the subsidiary banks’ compliance with regulatory capital requirements, tax considerations, industry standards, economic conditions, regulatory restrictions, general business practices and other factors. Refer to Note 18 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information on regulatory limitations on dividends from the subsidiary banks to the Company and additional information on dividends. The payment of dividends is dependent upon the Company having adequate cash or other assets that can be converted into cash to pay dividends to its stockholders. The Company does not anticipate a liquidity problem in 2005 relating to the payment of dividends.

A-9

The Company continues to seek acquisition opportunities that would strengthen its presence in current and new market areas. There are currently no pending acquisitions that would require the Company to secure capital from public or private markets.

Asset-Liability Management

The Company’s strategy with respect to asset-liability management is to maximize net interest income while limiting exposure to risks associated with volatile interest rates. This strategy is implemented by the subsidiary banks’ asset-liability committees that take action based upon their analysis of expected changes in the composition and volumes of the balance sheet and the fluctuations in market interest rates. One of the measures of interest-rate sensitivity is the gap ratio. This ratio indicates the amount of interest-earning assets repricing within a given period in comparison to the amount of interest-bearing liabilities repricing within the same period of time. A gap ratio of 1.0 indicates a matched position, in which case the effect on net interest income due to interest rate movements will be minimal. A gap ratio of less than 1.0 indicates that more liabilities than assets reprice within the time period and a ratio greater than 1.0 indicates that more assets reprice than liabilities.

As of December 31, 2004, the Company’s cumulative gap ratios for assets and liabilities repricing within three months and within one year were .43 and .65, respectively, meaning more liabilities than assets are repriceable within these periods. The gap position is largely the result of classifying interest-bearing NOW accounts, money market accounts, and savings accounts as immediately repriceable. Historically, the Company has not repriced these accounts as frequently or as quickly as it adjusts the rates on new and renewing certificates of deposit. Loan pool participations are repriced over a three-year period based on the historical average for return of pool investment.

Market Risk Management

Market risk is the risk of earnings volatility that results from adverse changes in interest rates and market prices. The Company’s market risk is comprised primarily of interest rate risk arising from its core banking activities of lending and deposits. Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates may adversely affect the Company’s net interest income. Management continually develops and applies strategies to mitigate this risk. Management does not believe that the Company’s primary market risk exposures and how those exposures were managed in 2004 changed when compared to 2003.

The Company uses a third-party computer software simulation modeling program to measure its exposure to potential interest rate changes. For various assumed hypothetical changes in market interest rates, numerous other assumptions are made such as prepayment speeds on loans and securities backed by mortgages, the slope of the Treasury yield curve, the rates and volumes of the Company’s deposits, and the rates and volumes of the Company’s loans. This analysis measures the estimated change in net interest income in the event of hypothetical changes in interest rates. The following table presents the Company’s projected changes in net interest income for the various rate shock levels at December 31, 2004.

	$ Change		% Change
+200 bp	176,000		0.70	%
+100 bp	86,000		0.34	%
Base	0		0.00	%
-100 bp	(232,000	)	-0.92	%
-200 bp	(822,000	)	-3.27	%

As shown above, at December 31, 2004, the effect of a ramped 200 basis point increase in interest rates would increase the Company’s net interest income by approximately $176,000. The effect of a ramped 200 basis point decrease in rates would decrease the Company’s net interest income by approximately $822,000. The reduction in national market interest rates that occurred in the past two years have allowed the Company to lower

A-10

the rates it is paying on many liquid deposit accounts to a point where they cannot be decreased by another 200 basis points. Any additional reductions in market interest rates could reduce the Company’s net interest margin as rates on repriceable assets are reduced while rates on liabilities cannot be lowered much farther. Based on the computer simulation, a 200 basis point ramped increase in interest rates would not have a significant effect on the net interest margin as similar amounts of variable rate assets and liabilities would reprice concurrently.

Computations of the prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are based on numerous assumptions. Actual values may differ from those projections set forth above. Further, the computations do not contemplate any actions the Company may undertake in response to changes in interest rates.

Loan Quality

Total loans increased 6 percent during 2004 to a year-end total of $398,854,000. Non-performing assets as of December 31, 2004 totaled $3,056,000. The year-end 2004 total of non-performing assets decreased $236,000 or 7 percent when compared with the December 31, 2003 amount of $3,292,000. The ratio of non-performing assets to total loans was .77 percent for year-end 2004 and .87 percent for year-end 2003. Nonaccrual loans decreased $166,000 to a December 31, 2004 total of $1,571,000. Loans past due 90 days and over as of year-end 2004 totaled $858,000, an increase of $33,000 compared with the year-end 2003 total. Troubled debt restructurings were $486,000 on December 31, 2004 and $567,000 on December 31, 2003. Other real estate consists of real estate acquired by the Company through foreclosure. Other real estate as of December 31, 2004, decreased $22,000 to $141,000 from the December 31, 2003 total of $163,000. Efforts to further improve asset quality continue.

The allowance for loan losses was $4,745,000 on December 31, 2004 and totaled $4,857,000 as of December 31, 2003. The allowance represented 1.19 percent of total loans at December 31, 2004 and 1.29 percent of loans on December 31, 2003. Additions to the allowance for the year were the result of management’s concerns about the deterioration in the local economy and commercial and agricultural growth in the Company’s loan portfolio. The allowance as a percentage of non-performing assets was 155.3 percent on December 31, 2004 and 147.6 percent on December 31, 2003. Net loan charge-offs for 2004 were $970,000 or .25 percent of average loans compared with 2003 charge-offs of $306,000 or .08 percent of average loans. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered by management to be adequate to provide for probable loan losses inherent in the portfolio at the balance sheet date.

Future Prospects

Inflation can have a significant effect on the operating results of all industries. Management believes that inflation does not affect the banking industry as much as it does other industries with a high proportion of fixed assets and inventory. Inflation does, however, have an impact on the growth of total assets and the need to maintain an appropriate level of regulatory capital.

Interest rates are significantly affected by inflation. It is difficult to assess the impact rate changes have since neither the timing nor the magnitude of changes in the various inflation indices coincides with changes in interest rates. There is, of course, an impact on longer-term earning assets; however, this effect continues to diminish as investment maturities are shortened and interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities shift from fixed-rate long-term to rate-sensitive short-term.

During 2004 the national inflation rate increased as the economy was determined to be recovering from a mild recession. Interest rates remained relatively constant in the first half of the year and moved upward in the latter portion of the year. Management of the Company believes that the 2005 rate of inflation will increase somewhat and that interest rates will continue to increase as the economy improves. The Federal Reserve’s target rate for fed funds is forecast to move upward 1.00 to 1.25 percent by year-end 2005. The Company is in a negative gap position with a greater amount of interest-bearing liabilities repriceable compared to repriceable

A-11

interest-earning assets. If interest rates do increase, the Company’s net interest margin may not change significantly as many interest-earning assets will reprice with the interest-paying liabilities. Management continues to focus on managing the net interest margin in 2005.

Management anticipates that in 2005 they will continue to explore opportunities to acquire additional loan pool participation investments. Bids on pool participations during the year will take into account the availability of funds to invest, the market for such pools in terms of price and availability, and the potential return on the pools relative to risk.

Accounting and Financial Reporting Developments

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46”), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” and, in December 2003, issued Revised Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46R”), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” which replaced FIN 46. The Company adopted the disclosure provisions of FIN 46 effective December 31, 2002. On February 1, 2003, the Company adopted the recognition and measurement provisions of FIN 46 for variable interest entities formed after January 31, 2003, and, on December 31, 2003, the Company adopted FIN 46R. The Company has no newly formed variable interest entity subject to the provisions of FIN 46. The effect of FIN 46 and FIN 46R is immaterial to the Company.

In December 2003, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) issued a Statement of Position (“SOP”) 03-3, “Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer” that addresses the accounting for differences between contractual and expected future cash flows from an investor’s initial investment in certain loans and debt securities. It includes such loans acquired in a transfer if those differences are attributable, at least in part, to credit quality. The SOP limits the yield that may be accreted (accretable yield) to the excess of the investor’s estimate of undiscounted expected future principal and interest cash flows (expected future cash flows) over the investor’s initial investment in the loan. The implementation of this SOP is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2004, and may have an effect on the Company’s accounting treatment for future purchases of Loan Pool Participations. Management is evaluating the effects that the implementation of this SOP will have on the Company’s financial results, but does not believe the effects will be material.

In March 2004, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 105, “Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments.” SAB No. 105 summarizes the views of the SEC staff regarding the application of generally accepted accounting principles to loan commitments accounted for as derivative instruments. SAB No. 105 acts to significantly limit opportunities to recognize an asset related to a commitment to originate a mortgage loan that will be held for sale prior to funding the loan. SAB No. 105 pertains to recognizing and disclosing the loan commitments to originate mortgage loans to be held for sale that are entered into after March 31, 2004. The Company adopted the provisions of SAB No. 105 beginning April 1, 2004. Adoption of this SAB did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) revisited EITF Issue No. 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and its Application to Certain Investments.” Effective with reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2004, companies carrying certain types of debt and equity securities at amounts higher than the securities’ fair market values would have to use more detailed criteria to evaluate whether to record a loss and would have to disclose additional information about unrealized losses. The Company has reviewed the revised EITF No. 03-1 and had planned to implement these additional procedures effective with the quarter beginning July 1, 2004; however, the FASB has since issued a statement of financial position deferring the effective date of the revised EITF No. 03-1 until further implementation issues may be resolved. Adoption of the new issuance could have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations but the extent of any impact will vary due to the fact that the model, as issued, calls for many judgments and additional evidence gathering as such evidence exists at each securities valuation date.

A-12

In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29.” SFAS No. 153 addresses the measurement of exchanges of nonmonetary assets. It eliminates the exception from fair value measurement for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets in paragraph 21(b) of APB Opinion No. 29, “Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions,” and replaces it with an exception for exchanges that do not have commercial substance. SFAS No. 153 specifies that a nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 become effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after December 31, 2004. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 are to be applied prospectively. The Company expects to adopt SFAS No. 153 on January 6, 2006; however, adoption of the standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123R”). SFAS No. 123R requires that the cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. SFAS No. 123R establishes fair value as the measurement objective in accounting for share-based payment arrangements and requires all entities to apply a fair-value-based measurement method in accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees except for equity instruments held by employee share ownership plans. However, SFAS No. 123R provides certain exceptions to the measurement method if it is not possible to reasonably estimate the fair value of the award at the grant date. A nonpublic entity also may choose to measure its liabilities under share-based payment arrangements at intrinsic value. SFAS No. 123R also establishes fair value as the measurement objective for transactions in which an entity requires goods or services from nonemployees in share-based payment transactions. SFAS No. 123R amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows” to require that excess tax benefits be reported as financing cash inflow rather than a reduction of taxes paid. SFAS No. 123R replaces SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB No. 25. Additional other pronouncements are also superseded or amended by SFAS No. 123R. SFAS No. 123R becomes effective for public entities that do not file as small business issuers as of the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. Therefore, the Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 123R on or before July 1, 2005. Adoption of the standard will affect results of operations to the extent that expenses associated with stock options are required to be recognized in the financial statements under the fair value accounting method. The disclosures included under Note 1 (“Stock Incentive Plan”), as well as those presented in Note 14 to these consolidated financial statements, provide an estimation of the impact on the Company’s results of operations under the revised accounting standard based upon stock options issued to date.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company has identified two critical accounting policies and practices relative to the financial condition and results of operation. These two accounting policies relate to the allowance for loan losses and to loan pool accounting.

The allowance for loan losses is based on management’s opinion and in management’s opinion is adequate to absorb losses in the existing portfolio. In evaluating the portfolio, management takes into consideration numerous factors, including current economic conditions, prior loan loss experience, the composition of the loan portfolio, and management’s estimate of probable credit losses. The allowance for loan loss is established through a provision for loss based on management’s evaluation of the risk inherent in the loan portfolio, the composition of the portfolio, specific impaired loans, and current economic conditions. Such evaluation, which includes a review of all loans on which full collectibility may not be reasonably assured, considers among other matters, the estimated net realizable value or the fair value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical loss experience, and other factors that warrant recognition in providing for an adequate allowance for loan loss.

The loan pool accounting practice relates to management’s opinion that the investment amount reflected on the Company’s financial statements does not exceed the estimated net realizable value or the fair value of the

A-13

underlying collateral securing the purchased loans. In evaluating the purchased loan portfolio, management takes into consideration many factors, including the borrowers’ current financial situation, the underlying collateral, current economic conditions, historical collection experience, and other factors relative to the collection process.

In the event that management’s evaluation of the level of the allowance for loan losses is inadequate, the Company would need to increase its provision for loan losses. If the estimated realizable value of the loan pool participations is understated, the Company’s yield on the loan pools would be reduced.

Impact of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act was signed into law on July 30, 2002. The Act aims to correct what are perceived as structural weaknesses affecting the capital markets. The Act aims to increase the reliability of financial information by placing corporate executives under considerable pressure to make sure financial information is correct. This includes a requirement for the CEO and CFO to certify reports submitted to the SEC and to report on the effectiveness of internal control. The Act strengthens the power and independence of corporate audit committees by requiring the committee to take charge of hiring, overseeing, and compensating the company’s auditor and requiring that the audit committee members be independent of the company. Auditors are to report directly to the audit committee. The Act also limits the non-audit services that the company’s audit firm may provide and requires that any allowable non-audit services must be pre-approved by the audit committee. The Act adds more disclosure to be included in financial reports filed with the SEC. It adds new sanctions and increases the severity of a number of civil and criminal penalties related to securities law violations, in addition to severe penalties for certification of faulty financial statements. Additionally, the Act places a number of restrictions on the activities of securities firms and their employees that are supposed to isolate security analysts from pressures that may compromise the objectivity of their reports.

Management of the Company, the Company’s audit committee, and the Company’s internal auditor are working together to insure that the financial information reported by the Company is correct and reliable, that the required evaluation of internal controls takes place, and that certification by management is performed. The role and operation of the audit committee and its relationship with the Company’s independent auditor are being evaluated. It is the intent of the Company to comply with the law.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002

1.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accounting and reporting policies of MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and to general practices within the banking industry. The consolidated financial statements of the Company include its 100 percent owned subsidiaries, MidWestOne Bank & Trust, Central Valley Bank, Pella State Bank, MidWestOne Bank, MidWestOne Investment Services, Inc., and MIC Financial, Inc. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Acquisition of Securities Brokerage Company

On July 30, 2004, the Company completed its acquisition of Koogler Company of Iowa (“KCI”), a sole proprietorship, which was a broker and registered investment advisor. The acquisition was a purchase transaction with the Company acquiring KCI’s book of business in exchange for $450,000 in cash and 6,601 shares of the Company’s stock with a fair market value of $115,000. Contemporaneously with this acquisition, the Company formed a new wholly-owned subsidiary called MidWestOne Investment Services, Inc. to provide investment advisory and brokerage services throughout the banking offices of the Company utilizing the expertise of Mr. Koogler and his staff.

Acquisition of Belle Plaine Service Corp.

The Company acquired all the outstanding shares of Belle Plaine Service Corp. (“BPSC”) in a 100 percent cash transaction on February 1, 2003. BPSC was the parent company of Citizens Bank and Trust of Hudson, Iowa, a state-chartered commercial bank, with locations in Hudson, Belle Plaine, and Waterloo, Iowa.

The transaction was accounted for as a purchase transaction with the revenues and expenses reflected on the Company’s financial statements from February 1, 2003 forward. As of February 1, 2003, BPSC had total assets of $77,602,000, loans totaling $61,010,000, and deposits of $62,940,000. The excess of purchase price over the identifiable fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed of $4,179,000 was recorded as goodwill and other intangible assets.

Name Changes and Merger of Subsidiary Banks

During the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders held on April 30, 2003, the shareholders approved a proposal to change the Mahaska Investment Company name to MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. The new name better describes the Company’s focus and enhances the opportunity for local and regional growth. In June 2003, Citizens Bank and Trust was merged into Mahaska State Bank, with the resulting bank adopting the new name of MidWestOne Bank & Trust. Additionally, Midwest Federal Savings in Burlington changed its name to MidWestOne Bank, thereby strengthening the overall corporate identity.

Nature of Operations

The bank subsidiaries engage in retail and commercial banking and related financial services, providing the usual products and services such as deposits, commercial, agricultural real estate, and consumer loans, and trust services. The Company also provides data processing services to affiliated and non-affiliated banks.

Since 1988, the Company, either directly or through the bank subsidiaries, has invested in loan pool participations that have been purchased by certain non-affiliated independent service corporations (collectively, the “Servicer”) from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), the Resolution Trust Corporation (“RTC”), or other sources. These loan pool investments are comprised of packages of loans previously made by financial institutions, which often include distressed or nonperforming loans, that have been sold at prices

F-5

reflecting various discounts from the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the underlying loans depending on the credit quality of the portfolio. The Servicer collects and remits these amounts, less servicing fees, to the participants.

Effect of New Financial Accounting Standards

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46”), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” and, in December 2003, issued Revised Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46R”), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, which replaced FIN 46. The Company adopted the disclosure provisions of FIN 46 effective December 31, 2002. On February 1, 2003, the Company adopted the recognition and measurement provisions of FIN 46 for variable interest entities formed after January 31, 2003, and, on December 31, 2003, the Company adopted FIN 46R. The Company has no newly formed variable interest entity subject to the provisions of FIN 46. The effect of FIN 46 and FIN 46R is immaterial to the Company.

In December 2003, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) issued a Statement of Position (“SOP”) 03-3, “Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer”, that addresses the accounting for differences between contractual and expected future cash flows from and investor’s initial investment in certain loans and debt securities. It includes such loans acquired in a transfer if those differences are attributable, at least in part, to credit quality. The SOP limits the yield that may be accreted (accretable yield) to the excess of the investor’s estimate of undiscounted expected future principal and interest cash flows (expected future cash flows) over the investor’s initial investment in the loan. The implementation of this SOP is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004, and may have an effect on the Company’s accounting treatment for future purchases of Loan Pool Participations. The Company will adopt SOP 03-3 on January 1, 2005. At this time, adoption of this SOP is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In March 2004, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 105, “Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments”. SAB No. 105 summarizes the views of the SEC staff regarding the application of generally accepted accounting principles to loan commitments accounted for as derivative instruments. SAB No. 105 acts to significantly limit opportunities to recognize an asset related to a commitment to originate a mortgage loan that will be held for sale prior to funding the loan. SAB No. 105 pertains to recognizing and disclosing the loan commitments to originate mortgage loans to be held for sale that are entered into after March 31, 2004. The Company adopted the provisions of SAB No. 105 beginning April 1, 2004. Adoption of this SAB did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) revisited EITF Issue No. 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and its Application to Certain Investments”. Effective with reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2004, companies carrying certain types of debt and equity securities at amounts higher than the securities’ fair market values would have to use more detailed criteria to evaluate whether to record a loss and would have to disclose additional information about unrealized losses. The Company has reviewed the revised EITF No. 03-1 and had planned to implement these additional procedures effective with the quarter beginning July 1, 2004; however, the FASB has since issued a statement of financial position deferring the effective date of the revised EITF No. 03-1 until further implementation issues may be resolved. Adoption of the new issuance could have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations but the extent of any impact will vary due to the fact that the model, as issued, calls for many judgments and additional evidence gathering as such evidence exists at each securities valuation date.

In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29”. SFAS No. 153 addresses the measurement of exchanges of nonmonetary assets. It eliminates the exception from fair value measurement for

F-6

nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets in paragraph 21(b) of APB Opinion No. 29, “Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions”, and replaces it with an exception for exchanges that do not have commercial substance. SFAS No. 153 specifies that a nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 become effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after December 31, 2004. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 are to be applied prospectively. The Company expects to adopt SFAS No. 153 on January 6, 2006; however, adoption of the standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123R”). SFAS No. 123R requires that the cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. SFAS No. 123R establishes fair value as the measurement objective in accounting for share-based payment arrangements and requires all entities to apply a fair-value-based measurement method in accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees except for equity instruments held by employee share ownership plans. However, SFAS No. 123R provides certain exceptions to the measurement method if it is not possible to reasonably estimate the fair value of the award at the grant date. A nonpublic entity also may choose to measure its liabilities under share-based payment arrangements at intrinsic value. SFAS No. 123R also establishes fair value as the measurement objective for transactions in which an entity requires goods or services from nonemployees in share-based payment transactions. SFAS No. 123R amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows” to require that excess tax benefits be reported as financing cash inflow rather than a reduction of taxes paid. SFAS No. 123R replaces SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB No. 25. Additional other pronouncements are also superseded or amended by SFAS No. 123R. SFAS No. 123R becomes effective for public entities that do not file as small business issuers as of the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. Therefore, the Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 123R on or before July 1, 2005. Adoption of the standard will affect results of operations to the extent that expenses associated with stock options are required to be recognized in the financial statements under the fair value accounting method. The disclosures included under Note 1 (“Stock Incentive Plan”), as well as those presented in Note 14 to these consolidated financial statements, provide an estimation of the impact on the Company’s results of operations under the revised accounting standard based upon stock options issued to date.

F-7

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share amounts are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share amounts are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares and all potentially dilutive shares outstanding during the year. The Company has had a Stock Repurchase Plan in effect since April 1995. In accordance with the plan, 115,379, 175,600 and 32,100 shares of common stock were repurchased by the Company during 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The following information was used in the computation of earnings per share on both a basic and diluted basis for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002:

		3,879	3,962	3,975
Diluted EPS	$	1.50	1.50	1.46

Stock Incentive Plan

The Company has a stock incentive plan under which up to 550,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance pursuant to options or other awards which may be granted to officers, key employees and certain nonaffiliated directors of the Company. The exercise price of each option equals the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. The option’s maximum term is ten years, with vesting occurring at the rate of thirty-three percent on the one-year anniversary date of the grant, sixty-six percent vesting on the two-year anniversary, and one hundred percent vesting on the three-year anniversary date of the grant. The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for this plan. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock options in the financial statements.

F-8

Had compensation cost for the Company’s stock incentive plan been determined consistent with SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Company’s net income and net income per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

Pro forma—basic		1.47	1.47	1.44
Pro forma—diluted		1.46	1.47	1.44

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument for sale at one time. Unless included in assets available for sale, it is the Company’s general practice and intent to hold its financial instruments to maturity and not to engage in trading or sale activities.

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 estimates.

Estimated fair values have been determined by the Company using the best available information and an estimation method suitable for each category of financial instruments.

Cash and Due from Banks

The Company is required to maintain certain daily reserve balances on hand in accordance with federal banking regulations. The average reserve balances maintained in accordance with such regulations for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 were $2,291,000 and $1,854,000, respectively.

Investment Securities

The Company classifies investment securities based on the intended holding period. Securities which may be sold prior to maturity to meet liquidity needs, to respond to market changes, or to adjust the Company’s asset-liability position are classified as available for sale. Securities held principally for the purpose of near-term sales are classified as trading. Securities the Company intends to hold until maturity are classified as held to maturity.

Investment securities available for sale are recorded at fair value. The aggregate unrealized gains and losses, net of the income tax effect, are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income until realized. Securities with unrealized losses are analyzed quarterly for other than temporary impairment. If a security is determined to have a other than temporary impairment, a loss is recognized on the consolidated statements of income and a new cost basis is established. Securities held to maturity are recorded at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts.

F-9

Net gains or losses on the sales of securities are shown in the consolidated statements of income using the specific identification method and are recognized on a trade date basis.

Loans

Loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding, net of allowance for loan losses. Interest on loans is credited to income as earned based on the principal amount outstanding.

It is the Company’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income on any loan when, in the opinion of management, there is reasonable doubt as to the collectibility of interest or principal. Nonaccrual loans are returned to an accrual status when, in the opinion of management, the financial position of the borrower indicates there is no longer any reasonable doubt as to timely payment of principal or interest.

All impaired loans, including loans that are restructured in a troubled debt restructuring involving a modification of terms, are measured at the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s initial effective interest rate. The fair value of the collateral of an impaired collateral-dependent or an observable market price, if one exists, may be used as an alternative to discounting. If the measure of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, impairment will be recognized through the allowance for loan losses. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. All portfolio loans are reviewed for impairment on an individual basis.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company originates real estate, consumer, and commercial loans primarily in its southeast Iowa market area and adjacent counties. Although the Company has a diversified portfolio, a substantial portion of its borrowers’ ability to repay their loans is dependent upon economic conditions in the Company’s market area.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes collectibility of the principal is unlikely.

Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb probable losses in the loan portfolio on the balance sheet date. While management uses available information to recognize loan losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of the examination process, periodically review the subsidiary banks’ allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the subsidiary banks to increase their allowance for loan losses based on their judgments and interpretations about information available to them at the time of their examinations.

Loan Pool Participations

The Company has invested in participation in pools of loans acquired from the FDIC, the RTC, and other sources at substantial discounts. The pools, all acquired since 1988, consist of loans to borrowers located throughout the United States.

The Company carries its investment in the loan pools as a separate earning asset on the balance sheet. Principal or interest restructures, write-downs, or write-offs within the pools are not included in the Company’s disclosures for its loan portfolio. The loan pools are managed by a nonaffiliate Servicer operating in Omaha, Nebraska, the sole incentive of which is cash collection without regard to principal or income allocation of the

F-10

payment. The investment in loan pools is accounted for on a cash basis. For loans receiving regular payments, cash is applied first to interest income for interest due at the contract rate. Payment amounts in excess of the interest due at the contractual interest rates are applied to the principal in a ratio of cost basis to loan face amount and to discount income.

For loans where circumstances or new information lead the Servicer and the Company to believe that collection of the note or recovery through collateral is less than originally determined, the cost basis assigned to the loan is written down or off through a charge to discount income.

For loans where the Servicer negotiates a settlement of the obligation for a lump sum, the payment is applied first to principal, then to discount income and last to interest due at the contract rate.

Premises and Equipment

Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line or accelerated method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, which range from 5 to 40 years for buildings and improvements and 3 to 10 years for furniture and equipment.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of goodwill and other intangible assets. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of acquired subsidiaries’ net assets over their fair value. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment annually, and more frequently in the presence of certain circumstances. Impairment exists when the carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. No impairment writedown of goodwill has been necessary.

Other intangible assets consist of core deposit premium and customer list intangible which are being amortized using the effective-yield method over 10 years. Annually, the Company reviews the core deposit premium and customer list intangible for events or circumstances that may indicate a change in the recoverability of the underlying basis.

Other Real Estate Owned

Other real estate owned represents property acquired through foreclosure or deeded to the subsidiary banks in lieu of foreclosure on real estate mortgage loans on which the borrowers have defaulted as to payment of principal and interest. Other real estate owned is carried at the lower of the cost of acquisition or fair value, less estimated costs of disposition, and is included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Reductions in the balance of other real estate at the date of acquisition are charged to the allowance for loan losses. Expenses incurred subsequent to the acquisition of the property and any subsequent write-downs to reflect current fair market value are charged as noninterest expense as incurred. Gains or losses on the disposition of other real estate are recognized in other income or expense in the period in which they are realized.

Trust Department Assets

Property held for customers in fiduciary or agency capacities is not included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as such items are not assets of the Company.

Income Taxes

The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return. For state purposes, the bank subsidiaries each file a franchise return and the remaining entities file a consolidated income tax return.

F-11

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in banks, and federal funds sold.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years consolidated financial statements in order to conform to current year presentation.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates that are particularly sensitive to change relate to the allowance for loan losses and the carrying basis of the loan pool participations.

The following table summarizes the amount of unrealized losses, defined as the amount by which amortized cost exceeds fair value, and the related fair value of investments with unrealized losses in the Company’s securities portfolio as of December 31, 2004. The investments were segregated into two categories: those that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for less than 12 months and those that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12 or more months. The reference point for determining how long an investment was in an unrealized loss position was December 31, 2004. The investment held by the Company as of December 31, 2004, that had unrealized losses for a period of greater than twelve months was one obligation of states and political subdivisions. All of the investments held by the Company as of December 31, 2004, that had unrealized losses for a period of less than twelve months were due to the increased rates being offered by year-end 2004 on similar investment securities.

The recorded amount of cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits with banks, accrued interest receivable and payable, and federal funds sold approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The estimated fair value of investment securities has been determined using available quoted market prices.

Loans have been valued using a present value discounted cash flow with a discount rate approximating the current market rate for similar loans.

F-19

The recorded amount of the loan pool participation approximates fair value due to the characteristics of the loan pool participation. Any additional value attained in the loan pool participation over purchase cost is directly attributable to the expertise of the Servicer to collect a higher percentage of the book value of loans in the pools over the percentage paid.

Deposit liabilities with no stated maturities have an estimated fair value equal to the recorded balance. Deposits with stated maturities have been valued using a present value discounted cash flow with a discount rate approximating the current market rate for similar deposits. The fair value estimate does not include the benefit that results from the low-cost funding provided by the deposit liabilities compared to the cost of borrowing funds in the market. The Company believes the value of these depositor relationships to be significant.

The recorded amount of federal funds purchased approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The estimated fair value of the Federal Home Loan Bank advances was determined using a present value discounted cash flow with a discount rate approximating the current market rate for similar borrowings.

The recorded amount of the notes payable approximates fair value as a result of the short-term nature of these instruments.

The recorded amount of the long-term debt approximates fair value due to the variable nature of this instrument.

16.    Regulatory Capital Requirements

The Company is subject to various capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possible additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total capital and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. As of December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company and its subsidiary banks met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. The Company and its bank subsidiaries actual capital amounts and ratios are also presented in the following table.

18.    Dividend Restrictions

The Company derives a substantial portion of its cash flow, including that available for dividend payments to shareholders, from its bank subsidiaries in the form of dividends received. The bank subsidiaries are subject to

F-24

certain statutory and regulatory restrictions that affect dividend payments. Based on minimum regulating guidelines as published by those regulators, the maximum dividends which could be paid by the bank subsidiaries to the Company at December 31, 2004, without prior regulatory approval, approximated $8,070,000.

Under the terms of the Company’s notes payable, there are certain covenants with respect to the payment of dividends. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 2004.

19.    Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers, which include commitments to extend credit. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any conditions established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments 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. As of December 31, 2004 and 2003, outstanding commitments to extend credit totaled approximately $66,086,000 and $66,506,000, respectively.

Commitments under standby letters of credit outstanding aggregated $3,427,000 and $1,850,000 as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The Company does not anticipate any losses as a result of these transactions.

The Company is involved in various legal actions and proceedings arising from the normal course of operations. Management believes, based upon known facts and the advice of legal counsel, that the ultimate liability, if any, not covered by insurance, arising from all legal actions and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect upon the consolidated financial position of the Company.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors

MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2004. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the 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 MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
