Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

​

Note 1:   Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Merchants Bancorp, a registered bank holding company (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Merchants Bank of Indiana (“Merchants Bank”), Farmers-Merchants Bank of Illinois (“FMBI”) (whose branches were sold to unaffiliated third parties and its remaining charter collapsed into Merchants Bank on January 26, 2024), and Merchants Asset Management, LLC (“MAM”). Merchants Bank’s primary operating subsidiaries include Merchants Capital Corp. (‘MCC”), Merchants Capital Servicing, LLC (“MCS”), and Merchants Capital Investments, LLC (“MCI”). All direct and indirectly owned subsidiaries owned by Merchants Bancorp are collectively referred to as the “Company”.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2023, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2024 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, were prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and, therefore, do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 in its Annual Report on Form 10-K. Reference is made to the accounting policies of the Company described in the Notes to the Financial Statements contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited financial statements have been included to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2024 and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. All interim amounts have not been audited and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, herein are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the entire year.

Sale of Farmers-Merchants Bank of Illinois branches

​

On September 7, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement with Bank of Pontiac to sell its Farmers-Merchants Bank of Illinois branch locations in Paxton, Melvin, and Piper City, Illinois, and into an agreement with CBI Bank & Trust, to sell its Farmers-Merchants Bank of Illinois branch located in Joy, Illinois.

​

This transaction enhanced the Company’s ability to focus on its core business of single and multi-family mortgage lending and strategically aligned the branches with institutions that share a similar business model and allowed them to provide additional products to their customers.

​

On January 26, 2024, the transaction was completed after having met customary closing conditions, including regulatory approval.

​

In addition to the branches, Bank of Pontiac acquired approximately $164.8 million in deposits and $19.2 million in loans, and CBI Bank & Trust acquired approximately $65.1 million in deposits and $28.6 million in loans.

​

Total assets and liabilities of approximately $60.8 million and $230.6 million, respectively, were sold. A net gain of $715,000 was recognized from the transactions, which includes a $10.1 million deposit premium and the extinguishment of $7.8 million in goodwill and $0.5 million in intangibles during the first quarter of 2024.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 include results from the Company, and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Merchants Bank, FMBI (until its branches were sold and its bank charter merged into Merchants Bank on January 26, 2024), and MAM. Also included are Merchants Bank’s primary operating subsidiaries, MCC, MCS, and MCI, as well as all direct and indirectly owned subsidiaries owned by Merchants Bancorp.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

​

During 2022, Merchants Foundation, Inc., a nonprofit corporation, was incorporated and its results are consolidated with the Company’s consolidated financial statements in all periods presented.

In addition, when the Company makes an equity investment in or has a relationship with an entity for which it holds a variable interest, it is evaluated for consolidation requirements under Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) Topic 810. Accordingly, the Company assesses the entities for potential consolidation as a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and would only consolidate those entities for which it is a primary beneficiary. A primary beneficiary is defined as the party that has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity, and an interest that could be significant to the entity. To determine if an interest could be significant to the entity, both qualitative and quantitative factors regarding the nature, size and form of the Company’s involvement with the entity are evaluated. Alternatively, under the voting interest model, it would only consolidate those entities for which it has a controlling interest.

In May 2023, the Company acquired a variable interest in an investment for which it is the primary beneficiary of, and its results have been consolidated since the date of acquisition. Additionally, the Company has certain variable interest investments that it was deemed not to be a primary beneficiary of as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. These VIEs are not consolidated and the equity or proportional method of accounting has been applied. The Company will analyze whether the primary beneficiary designation has changed through triggering events on a prospective basis. Changes in facts and circumstances occurring since the previous primary beneficiary determination will be considered as part of this ongoing assessment. See Note 5: Variable Interest Entities (VIEs) for additional information about VIEs.

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for credit losses on loans and fair values of servicing rights and financial instruments.

Significant Accounting Policies

​

The significant accounting policies followed by the Company for interim financial reporting are consistent with the accounting policies followed for annual financial reporting. For additional information regarding significant accounting policies, see the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10–K.

​

Restricted Cash

​

Included in cash equivalents is an account restricted as collateral for the potential risk of loss on senior credit linked notes issued by the Company. The balance of the notes as of June 30, 2024 was $112.3 million. As of June 30, 2024, there was $37.0 million in restricted cash held in a separate account included in the total of interest-earning demand accounts on the Balance Sheet. Also see Note 11: Borrowings.

Allowance for Credit Losses

​

For securities available for sale with an unrealized loss position, the Company evaluates the securities to determine whether the decline in the fair value below the amortized cost basis (impairment) is due to credit-related factors or noncredit related factors. Any impairment that is not credit-related is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax. Credit-related impairment is recognized as an ACL for securities available for sale on the balance sheet, limited to the amount by which the amortized cost basis exceeds the fair value, with a corresponding adjustment to earnings. Accrued interest receivable is excluded from the estimate of credit losses. Both the ACL and the adjustment to net income may be reversed if conditions change. However, if the Company expects, or is required, to sell an impaired available for sale security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount would be recognized in earnings with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis. Because the security’s amortized cost basis is adjusted to fair value, there is no ACL in this situation.

​

In evaluating securities available for sale in unrealized loss positions for impairment and the criteria regarding its intent or requirement to sell such securities, the Company considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuers’ financial condition, among other factors. Unrealized losses on the Company’s investment securities portfolio have not been recognized as an expense because the securities are of high credit quality, and the decline in fair values is attributable to changes in the prevailing interest rate environment since the purchase date. Fair value is expected to recover as securities reach maturity and/or the interest rate environment returns to conditions similar to when these securities were purchased. There were no credit related factors underlying unrealized losses on available for sale debt securities at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

​

Securities held to maturity are primarily comprised of non-agency mortgage-backed securities secured by multi-family or single-family properties, and agency mortgage-backed securities secured by multi-family properties. The agency securities held to maturity are Ginnie Mae mortgage-backed securities and backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. Accordingly, no allowance for credit losses has been recorded for these securities. The non-agency securities were purchased under securitization arrangements where a credit loss component was purchased by third party investors. These securities were evaluated for credit losses over and above the credit loss percentage sold under the arrangements, and the Company does not anticipate any such losses. Additional qualitative factors are evaluated, including the timeliness of principal and interest payments under the contractual terms of the securities. Accordingly, no allowance for credit losses has been recorded for the non-agency securities.

Note 3:   Mortgage Loans in Process of Securitization

Mortgage loans in process of securitization are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. These include multi-family rental real estate loan originations to be sold as Ginnie Mae mortgage-backed securities and Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac participation certificates, all of which are pending settlement under firm investor commitments to purchase the securities, typically occurring within 30 days. The aggregate fair value adjustment recorded on mortgage loans in process of securitization was $0.5 million and $0.8 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Note 4:   Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at their outstanding principal balances adjusted for unearned income, charge-offs, the ACL-Loans, any unamortized deferred fees or costs on originated loans and unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans.

For loans at amortized cost, interest income is accrued based on the unpaid principal balance.

The Company has made a policy election to exclude accrued interest from the amortized cost basis of loans and reports accrued interest separately from the related loan balance in the consolidated unaudited condensed balance sheets. Accrued interest on loans totaled $58.6 million and $60.4 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

The Company also elected not to measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivables. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days past due unless the credit is well-secured and in process of collection. Past-due status is based on contractual terms of the loan. Loans may be placed on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off is reversed against interest income. The interest collected on these loans is applied to the principal balance until the loan can be returned to an accrual status. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

For all loan portfolio segments, the Company charges off loans, or portions thereof, when available information confirms that specific loans are uncollectable based on information that includes, but is not limited to, (1) the deteriorating financial condition of the borrower, (2) declining collateral values, and/or (3) legal action, including bankruptcy, that impairs the borrower’s ability to adequately meet its obligations.

When cash payments for accrued interest are received on nonaccrual loans in each loan class, the Company records a reduction in loan principal. For loan modifications, interest income is recognized on an accrual basis at the renegotiated rate if the loan is in compliance with the modified terms.

The Company offers mortgage warehouse repurchase agreements to third parties to fund mortgage loans held for sale from closing until sale to an investor. Under a warehousing arrangement, the Company funds a mortgage loan as secured financing. The warehousing arrangement is secured by the underlying mortgages and a combination of deposits, personal guarantees, and advance rates. The Company typically holds the collateral until it is sent under a bailee arrangement instructing the investor to send proceeds to the Company. Typical investors are large financial institutions or government agencies. Interest earned from the time of funding to the time of sale is recognized as interest income as accrued. Warehouse fees are accrued as noninterest income.

​

Risk characteristics applicable to each segment of the loan portfolio are described as follows.

Mortgage Warehouse Repurchase Agreements (MTG WHRA): Under its warehouse program, the Company provides warehouse financing arrangements to approved mortgage companies for their origination and sale of residential mortgage and multi-family loans. Loans secured by mortgages placed on existing one-to-four family dwellings may be originated or purchased and placed through each mortgage warehouse facility.

As a secured repurchase agreement, collateral pledged to the Company secures each individual mortgage until the mortgage company sells the loan in the secondary market. A traditional secured warehouse facility typically carries a base interest rate of the Federal Reserve’s Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), or mortgage note rate, and a margin.

Risk is evident if there is a change in the fair value of mortgage loans originated by mortgage companies in warehouse, the sale of which is the expected source of repayment under a warehouse facility. However, the warehouse customers are required to hedge the change in value of these loans to mitigate the risk, typically through forward sales contracts.

Residential Real Estate Loans (RES RE): Real estate loans are secured by owner-occupied one-to-four family residences. Repayment of residential real estate loans is primarily dependent on the personal income and credit rating of the borrowers. First-lien HELOC mortgages included in this segment typically carried a base rate of 30-day LIBOR, plus a margin. With the sunset of LIBOR, loans have been transitioned to the One-Year Constant Maturity Treasury (“CMT”), plus a margin.

​

Multi-Family Financing (MF FIN): The Company specializes in originating multi-family financing that can be market rate or affordable. The portfolio includes loans for construction, acquisition, refinance, or permanent financing. Loans are typically secured by real estate mortgages, assignment of Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (“LIHTC”), and/or equity interest in the underlying properties. All loans are assessed and reviewed at a minimum based on borrower strength/experience, historical property performance, market trends, projected financial performance with regards to intended strategy, and source of repayment. Independent third-party reports are used to ensure legal conformity and support valuations of the assets. Exit strategies and sources of repayment are provided through the secondary market via governmental programs, strategic refinances, LIHTC equity installments, and cashflow from the properties. Repayment of these loans depends on the successful operation of a business or property and the borrower’s cash flows. Credit risk in these loans may be impacted by the creditworthiness of a borrower, property values and the local economy in the related market area. These loans are well-collateralized and underwritten to agency guidelines. Loans included in this segment typically carry a base rate of 30-day SOFR, that adjusts on a monthly basis, and a margin. The Company strategically focuses on loan classes that are government backed or can be sold in the secondary market.

Healthcare Financing (HC FIN): The healthcare financing portfolio includes customized loan products for independent living, assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing projects. A variety of loan products are available to accommodate rehabilitation, acquisition, and refinancing of healthcare properties. Credit risk in these loans are primarily driven by local demographics and the expertise of the operators of the facilities. Repayment of these loans may include permanent loans, sales of developed property or an interim loan commitment from the Company until permanent agency-eligible financing is obtained, as well as successful operation of a business or property and the borrower’s cash flows. These loans are well-collateralized and underwritten to agency guidelines. Loans included in this segment typically carry a base rate of 30-day SOFR, that adjusts on a monthly basis, and a margin. The Company strategically focuses on loan classes that are government backed or can be sold in the secondary market.

Commercial Lending and Commercial Real Estate Loans (CML & CRE): The commercial lending and commercial real estate portfolio includes loans to commercial customers for use in financing working capital needs, equipment purchases and expansions, as well as loans to commercial customers to finance land and improvements. It also includes lines of credit collateralized by servicing rights that are assessed for fair value quarterly at the Company’s request. The loans in this category are repaid primarily from the cash flow of a borrower’s principal business operation. Credit risk in these loans is driven by creditworthiness of a borrower and the economic conditions that impact the cash flow stability from business operations. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans are included in this category. Less than 1% of total commercial and commercial real estate loans are made up of non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans.

​

Agricultural Production and Real Estate Loans (AG & AGRE): Agricultural production loans are generally comprised of seasonal operating lines of credit to grain farmers to plant and harvest corn and soybeans and term loans to fund the purchase of equipment. The Company also offers long-term financing to purchase agricultural real estate. Specific underwriting standards have been established for agricultural-related loans including the establishment of projections for each operating year based on industry-developed estimates of farm input costs and expected commodity yields and prices. Operating lines are typically written for one year and secured by the crop and other farm assets as considered necessary. The Company is approved to sell agricultural loans in the secondary market through the Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation and uses this relationship to manage interest rate risk within the portfolio. Agricultural real estate loans included in this segment are typically structured with a one-year adjustable rate mortgage (“ARM”), three-year ARM or five-year ARM CMT and a margin. Agriculture production, livestock, and equipment loans are structured with variable rates that are indexed to prime or fixed for terms not exceeding five years.  

​

Consumer and Margin Loans (CON & MAR): Consumer loans are those loans secured by household assets. Margin loans are those loans secured by marketable securities. The term and maximum amount for these loans are determined by considering the purpose of the loan, the margin (advance percentage against value) in all collateral, the primary source of repayment, and the borrower’s other related cash flow.

ACL-Loans

The ACL-Loans is the Company’s estimate of current expected credit losses. Loans receivable is presented net of the allowance to reflect the principal balance expected to be collected over the contractual term of the loans. This life of loan allowance is established through a provision for credit losses included in net interest income after provision for credit losses as loans are recorded in the financial statements. The provision for a reporting period also reflects increases or decreases in the allowance related to changes in credit loss expectations. Actual credit losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance, or a portion thereof, is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The ACL-Loans is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectability of the loans considering relevant available information from internal and external sources, including historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. The allowance also incorporates reasonable and supportable forecasts. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The level of the ACL-Loans is believed to be adequate to absorb innate expected future losses in the loan portfolio as of the measurement date.

The ACL-Loans consists of individually evaluated loans and pooled loan components. The Company’s primary portfolio segmentation is by loans with similar risk characteristics. Loans risk graded substandard and worse are individually evaluated for expected credit losses. For individually evaluated loans that are collateral dependent, the Company may use the fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell, as a practical expedient as of the reporting date to determine the carrying amount of an asset and the allowance for credit losses, as applicable. A loan is considered to be collateral dependent when repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or the sale of the collateral when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty as of the reporting date.

To calculate the ACL-Loans, the portfolio is segmented by loans with similar risk characteristics.

Loan characteristics used in determining the segmentation included the underlying collateral, type or purpose of the loan, and expected credit loss patterns. The initial estimation of expected credit losses for each segment is based on historical credit loss experience and management’s judgement. Given the Company’s modest historical credit loss experience, peer and industry data was incorporated into the measurement. Expected life of loan credit losses are quantified using discounted cash flows and remaining life methodologies.

Model results are supplemented by qualitative adjustments for risk factors relevant in assessing the expected credit losses within the portfolio segments. These adjustments may increase or decrease the estimate of expected credit losses based upon the assessed level of risk for each qualitative factor.

The models utilized and the applicable qualitative adjustments require assumptions and management judgement that can be subjective in nature. The above measurement approach is also used to estimate the expected credit losses associated with unfunded loan commitments, which also incorporates expected utilization rates.

Internal Risk Categories

The Company evaluates the loan risk grading system definitions and ACL-Loans methodology on an ongoing basis. As of December 31, 2023, the Company created a newly defined special mention risk rating category to be consistent with industry practices. Loans with a Watch classification are now included in the Pass risk rating category as of December 31, 2023. This updated policy was approved by the Company’s Management Committee, to be effective as of December 31, 2023 on a prospective basis.

In adherence with policy, the Company uses the following internal risk grading categories and definitions for loans since December 31, 2023:

Pass - Loans that are considered to be of acceptable credit quality, and not classified as Special Mention, Substandard or Doubtful. Also included are loans classified as Watch loans, which represent loans that remain sound and collectible but contain elevated risk that requires management’s attention.

Special Mention – Loans classified as special mention have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the institution’s credit position at some future date. Special Mention loans are not adversely classified and do not warrant adverse classification. Loans with questions or concerns regarding collateral, adverse market conditions impacting future performance, and declining financial trends would be considered for Special Mention.

Substandard - Loans classified as Substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. When a loan in the form of a line of credit is downgraded to Substandard, it is evaluated for impairment and future draws under the line of credit require the approval of an officer of Senior Credit Officer or above.

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

There were no delinquent loans classified as held for sale at June 30, 2024. The above table does not include one multi-family loan, 30-59 days past due, classified as held for sale at December 31, 2023, totaling $16.5 million.

Nonperforming Loans

Nonaccrual loans, including modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty that have not met the six-month minimum performance criterion, are reported as nonperforming loans. For all loan classes, it is the Company’s policy to have any modified loans which are on nonaccrual status prior to being modified, remain on nonaccrual status until six months of satisfactory borrower performance, at which time management would consider its return to accrual status. A loan is generally classified as nonaccrual when the Company believes that receipt of principal and interest is doubtful under the terms of the loan agreement. Generally, this is at 90 days or more past due. The amount of interest income recognized on nonaccrual financial assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $0.9 million, which was collected when a loan was paid off, and was immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

The Company did not have any nonaccrual loans without an estimated ACL at June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023. There were $8.7 million in specific reserves associated with nonaccrual loans totaling $46.4 million at June 30, 2024 and there were $5.4 million in specific reserves associated with nonaccrual loans totaling $20.7 million at December 31, 2023, excluding the reserves associated with FMBI, whose branches were sold in January 2024.

​

Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

Occasionally, the Company modifies loans to borrowers in financial distress by providing principal forgiveness, term extension, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, or interest rate reduction. In some cases, the Company provides multiple types of modifications on one loan. Typically, one type of modification, such as a term extension, is granted initially. If the borrower continues to experience financial difficulty, another modification, such as principal forgiveness, may be granted, but is rare.

​

The following table presents the amortized cost basis of loans at June 30, 2024 that were both experiencing financial difficulty and modified during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, by class and by type of modification. The percentage of the amortized cost basis of loans that were modified to borrowers in financial distress as compared to the amortized cost basis of each class of financing receivable is also presented below:

Significant Loan Sales

Freddie Mac Q Series Securitization – 2024 Activity

On April 30, 2024, the Company completed a $324.6 million securitization of 13 multi-family mortgage loans through a Freddie Mac-sponsored Q-Series transaction. The transfer of these loans was accounted for as a sale for financial reporting purposes, in accordance with ASC 860, and a $1.4 million gain on sale was recognized. The Company was retained as the mortgage sub-servicer for Freddie Mac on the entire $324.6 million pool of loans. Beyond sub-servicing the loans, the Company’s ongoing involvement in this transaction is limited to customary obligations of loan sales, including any material breach in representation. In connection with this transaction, a mortgage servicing right of $1.3 million was established.

Note 5:   Variable Interest Entities (VIEs)

A VIE is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or any other legal structure used to conduct activities or hold assets generally that either:

​

● Does not have equity investors with voting rights that can directly or indirectly make decisions about the entity’s activities through those voting rights or similar rights; or

​

● Has equity investors that do not provide sufficient equity for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support.

The Company has invested in single-family, multi-family, and healthcare debt financing entities, as well as low-income housing syndicated funds that are deemed to be VIEs. The Company also has deemed as VIEs a REMIC trust that was established in conjunction with the September 2022 multi-family loan sale and securitization transaction, as well as additional REMIC trusts that were established in December 2023 and June 2024 with a related party in conjunction with securitizations. Accordingly, the entities were assessed for potential consolidation under the VIE model that requires primary beneficiaries to consolidate the entity’s results. A primary beneficiary is defined as the party that has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity, and an interest that could be significant to the entity. To determine if an interest could be significant to the entity, both qualitative and quantitative factors regarding the nature, size and form of involvement with the entity are evaluated.

​

At June 30, 2024 the Company determined it was not the primary beneficiary for most of its VIEs, primarily because the Company did not have the obligation to absorb losses or the rights to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Evaluation and assessment of VIEs for consolidation is performed on an ongoing basis by management. Any changes in facts and circumstances occurring since the previous primary beneficiary determination will be considered as part of this ongoing assessment.

​

The table below reflects the assets and liabilities of the VIEs as well as our maximum exposure to loss in connection with unconsolidated VIEs at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss associated with its unconsolidated VIEs consists of the capital invested plus any unfunded equity commitments. These investments are recorded in other assets and other liabilities on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. Also included in the maximum loss exposure are bridge loans to VIEs and securities acquired as part of certain securitization transactions. The bridge loans are included in loans receivable and the securities are included in securities held to maturity.

Note 6:   Regulatory Matters

​

The Company, Merchants Bank and FMBI (prior to the January 26, 2024 sale of its branches and merger of its remaining charter into Merchants Bank) are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by federal and state banking 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 and Merchants Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s and Merchants Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s and Merchants Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, and other factors. Furthermore, the Company’s and Merchants Bank’s regulators could require adjustments to regulatory capital not reflected in these financial statements.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and Merchants Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below). Management believes, as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, that the Company and Merchants Bank met all capital adequacy requirements. For additional information regarding dividend restrictions, see the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10–K.

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the most recent notifications from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve”) categorized the Company as well capitalized and most recent notifications from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) categorized Merchants Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Company’s or Merchants Bank’s category.

FMBI was subject to these same requirements and guidelines prior to the sale of its branches and the merger of its remaining charter into Merchants Bank in January 2024. As of December 31, 2023, FMBI met all capital adequacy requirements (as set forth in the table below). The FDIC categorized FMBI as well capitalized at that time and there are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes would have changed that category.

The Company’s, Merchants Bank’s, and FMBI’s actual capital amounts and ratios are presented in the following tables.

Note 7: Derivative Financial Instruments

​

The Company uses non-hedging designated, derivative financial instruments to help manage exposure to interest rate risk and the effects that changes in interest rates may have on net income and the fair value of assets and liabilities.

Internal Interest Rate Risk Management

The Company enters into forward contracts for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors and enters into interest rate lock commitments with potential borrowers to fund specific mortgage loans that will be sold into the secondary market. The forward contracts are entered into in order to economically hedge the effect of changes in interest rates resulting from the Company’s commitment to fund the loans.

Interest rate swaps are also used by the Company to reduce the risk that significant increases in interest rates may have on the value of certain fixed rate loans held for sale and the respective loan payments received from borrowers.  All changes in the fair market value of these interest rate swaps and associated loans held for sale have been included in gain on sale of loans. Any difference between the fixed and floating interest rate components of these transactions have been included in interest income.

​

The Company entered into a contract containing put options and interest rate floors on securities it acquired from a warehouse customer. These provide protection and prevent losses in value of certain securities available for sale. The Company also entered into interest rate floor contracts with two warehouse loan customers to minimize interest rate risk. All changes in the fair market value of these options and floors have been included in other noninterest income.

Credit Risk Management

In March 2024, the Company entered into a contract as the buyer of credit protection through the credit derivative market. A credit default swap was purchased to manage credit risk associated with specific multifamily mortgage loans. Under the terms of the contract, the Company will be compensated for certain credit-related losses on a pool of multifamily mortgage loans. The protection seller has posted aggregate collateral of $76.1 million related to their obligations under the contract. Th collateral is not included in the Company’s balance sheet. There was no gain or loss associated with the credit default swap valuation as of June 30, 2024. Any future changes in the fair market value of this instrument will be included in other noninterest income.

​

All of these items are considered derivatives, but are not designated as accounting hedges, and are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value reflected in noninterest income on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income. The fair value of derivative instruments with a positive fair value are reported in other assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets while derivative instruments with a negative fair value are reported in other liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The following table presents the notional amount and fair value of interest rate locks, forward contracts, interest rate swaps, put options and interest rate floors utilized by the Company at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. This table excludes the fair market value adjustment on loans associated with these derivatives.

Derivatives on Behalf of Customers

The Company offers derivative contracts to some customers in connection with their risk management needs. These derivatives include interest rate swap, cap, and floor arrangements. The Company manages the risk associated with these contracts by entering into an equal and offsetting back-to-back derivative with a third-party dealer. These derivatives generally work together as an offsetting economic interest rate hedge, but the Company does not designate them for hedge accounting treatment. Consequently, changes in fair value of the corresponding derivative financial asset or liability were recorded as either a charge or credit to current earnings during the period in which the changes occurred, typically resulting in no material net earnings impact.

The fair values of derivative assets and liabilities related to back-to-back derivatives on behalf of customers were recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as follows:

Note 8:   Disclosures about Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. There is a hierarchy of three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1    Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2    Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities

Level 3    Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to the valuation hierarchy. There have been no significant changes in the valuation techniques during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023. For assets classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the process used to develop the reported fair value is described below.

Mortgage Loans in Process of Securitization, Securities Available for Sale, and Securities with a Fair Value Option Election

Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities, such as U.S. Treasuries, are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or independent asset pricing services and pricing models, the inputs of which are market-based or independently sourced market parameters, including, but not limited to, yield curves, interest rates, volatilities, prepayments, defaults, cumulative loss projections and cash flows. Such securities are classified in Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy including federal agencies, mortgage-backed securities, municipal securities and Federal Housing Administration participation certificates. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

Loans Held for Sale

Certain loans held for sale at fair value are saleable into the secondary mortgage markets and their fair values are estimated using observable quoted market or contracted prices, or market price equivalents, which would be used by other market participants. These saleable loans are considered Level 2.

Servicing Rights

Servicing rights do not trade in an active, open market with readily observable prices. Accordingly, fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow models having significant inputs of discount rate, prepayment speed, cost of servicing, interest rates, and default rate. Due to the nature of the valuation inputs, servicing rights are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

The Chief Financial Officer’s (CFO) office contracts with an independent pricing specialist to generate fair value estimates on a quarterly basis. The CFO’s office challenges the reasonableness of the assumptions used and reviews the methodology to ensure the estimated fair value complies with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Interest rate lock commitments - The Company estimates the fair value of interest rate lock commitments based on the value of the underlying mortgage loan, quoted mortgage-backed security prices, estimates of the fair value of the servicing rights, and an estimate of the probability that the mortgage loan will fund within the terms of the interest rate lock commitment, net of expenses. With respect to its interest rate lock commitments, management determined that a Level 3 classification was most appropriate based on the various significant unobservable inputs utilized in estimating the fair value of its interest rate lock commitments.

Forward sales commitments - The Company estimates the fair value of forward sales commitments based on market quotes of mortgage-backed security prices for securities similar to the ones used, which are considered Level 2.

Table of Contents

Merchants Bancorp

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

​

Interest rate swaps, caps, and floors (back-to-back) – The Company estimates the fair value of these derivatives made in relation to specific contracts with customers based on prices that are obtained from a third party that uses observable market inputs, thereby supporting a Level 2 classification.

Interest rate swaps – The Company estimates the fair value of certain interest rate swaps based on prices that are obtained from a third party that uses observable market inputs, thereby supporting a Level 2 classification.

Put options - The fair value of put options are linked to securities available for sale that are accounted for using the fair value option and are classified as either Level 2 or Level 3 on the hierarchy.  The put options are classified as Level 2 or Level 3 in the hierarchy, depending upon the magnitude of observable inputs in the valuation of the securities. These valuations are estimated by a third party.

Interest rate floors - The fair value of certain interest rate floors is linked to securities available for sale that are accounted for using the fair value option. Other interest rate floors are linked to loans with warehouse customers. The value of the interest rate floors is based on estimated discounted cash flows that are based on inputs that are not readily observable and, thus, are classified as Level 3 on the hierarchy. These valuations are estimated by a third party.

Credit Default Swap – The fair value of the credit default swap is linked to the value of its underlying mortgage loans. The Company estimates the fair value based on estimated discounted cash flows that are derived from inputs, including credit spreads that are not readily observable and, thus, are classified as Level 3 on the hierarchy. These valuations are estimated by a third party.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and recognized in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to the valuation hierarchy. For assets classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the process used to develop the reported fair value is described below.

Collateral Dependent Loans, Net of ACL-Loans

The estimated fair value of collateral dependent loans is based on the appraised fair value of the collateral, less estimated cost to sell. Collateral dependent loans are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company considers the appraisal or evaluation as the starting point for determining fair value and then considers other factors and events in the environment that may affect the fair value. Appraisals of the collateral underlying collateral-dependent loans are obtained when the loan is determined to be classified as substandard, collateral-dependent and subsequently as deemed necessary by the Chief Credit Officer’s (“CCO)” office. Appraisals and evaluations are reviewed for accuracy and consistency by the CCO’s office. Appraisers are selected from the list of approved appraisers maintained by management. The appraised values are reduced by discounts to consider lack of marketability and estimated cost to sell if repayment or satisfaction of the loan is dependent on the sale of the collateral. These discounts and estimates are developed by the CCO’s office by comparison to historical results.

Sensitivity of Significant Unobservable Inputs

The following is a discussion of the sensitivity of significant unobservable inputs, the interrelationships between those inputs and other unobservable inputs used in recurring fair value measurement, and of how those inputs might magnify or mitigate the effect of changes in the unobservable inputs on the fair value measurement.

Securities Available for Sale with a Fair Value Option Election, Loans, and Related Derivative Financial Instruments

The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of certain securities available for sale and their related put options include market credit spreads that can be impacted by market conditions and drive a significant amount of a market participant’s valuation of the security and its related put option. The impact of changes to the unobservable inputs for the securities is mitigated by changes to the unobservable inputs for the put options, which are valued in opposite directions, so as to minimize the financial impact to the Company.

​

The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of interest rate floor derivatives associated with certain securities available for sale and loans include the discount rate that can have a significant impact on the value of the derivative. Another variable that affects the floor value is the forward interest curve, which is observable, but changes with market conditions as interest rates and future interest rate expectations change.

Servicing Rights

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s servicing rights are discount rates and constant prepayment rates. These two inputs can drive a significant amount of a market participant’s valuation of servicing rights. Significant increases (decreases) in the discount rate or assumed constant prepayment rates used to value servicing rights would decrease (increase) the value derived.

Note 9:   Leases

The Company has operating leases for various locations with terms ranging from one to seven years. Some operating leases include options to extend. The extensions were included in the right-of-use asset if the likelihood of extension was reasonably certain. The Company elected not to separate non-lease components from lease components for its operating leases.

The Company has operating lease right-of-use assets of $8.0 million and $10.1 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and operating lease right-of-use liabilities of $9.1 million and $11.3 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Note 17:   Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company continually monitors potential accounting pronouncement and SEC release changes. The following pronouncements and releases have been deemed to have the most applicability to the Company’s financial statements:

FASB ASU 2023-07 - Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures

​

In November 2023, the FASB issued an ASU update that will require public entities’ disclosures, on an annual and interim basis, to include additional details on reportable segments so financial statement users may better understand an entity’s overall performance and assist in assessing potential future cash flows. The new guidance will require public entities to present information regarding significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) as well as details regarding segment’s profit and loss.

​

The updates in ASU 2023-07 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods for years beginning after December 15, 2024. An entity shall apply the ASU retrospectively to financial statements for periods beginning after the effective date.

Financial Highlights for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2024

​

● Net income of $76.4 million increased $11.1 million, or 17%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by a $22.5 million, or 21%, increase in net interest income and a $12.6 million, or 56%, decrease in provision for credit losses, partially offset by a $19.5 million, or 594%, increase in provision for income tax.
● Diluted earnings per share of $1.49 increased 14% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023.
● Tangible book value per common share of $31.27 increased 30% compared to $24.14 for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
● Total assets of $18.2 billion increased 2% compared to March 31, 2024, and increased 7% compared to December 31, 2023.
● Loans receivable, net of allowance for credit losses on loans, of $10.9 billion, increased $242.7 million, or 2%, compared to March 31, 2024, and increased $805.4 million, or 8%, compared to December 31, 2023.
● As of June 30, 2024, approximately 94% of the total net loans reprice within three months, which reduces the risk of market rate increases.
● Net interest margin was 2.99% compared to 2.97% for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
● Efficiency ratio was 31.59% compared to 32.71% for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
● As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $7.0 billion in unused borrowing capacity with the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve Discount window, based on available collateral. Our line of credit with the Federal Reserve Board, alone, could fund 118% of uninsured deposits.
● The Company’s most liquid assets are in unrestricted cash, short-term investments, including interest-earning demand deposits, mortgage loans in process of securitization, loans held for sale, and warehouse repurchase agreements included in loans receivable. Taken together, with unused borrowing capacity, these totaled $12.6 billion, or 69%, of the $18.2 billion in total assets as of June 30, 2024.
● The volume of warehouse loans funded during the three months ended June 30, 2024 amounted to $10.9 billion, an increase of $2.5 billion, or 30%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. This compared to the 7% industry decrease in single-family residential loan volumes for the three months ended June 30, 2024 to the same period in 2023, according to an estimate of industry volume by the Mortgage Bankers Association.

● On May 13, 2024, the Company completed a common stock offering of 2.4 million shares, resulting in net proceeds of $97.7 million, which contributed to the estimated 70 basis point increase in the common equity tier I capital ratio that reached 8.7% as of June 30, 2024.
● On April 30, 2024, the Company completed a $324.6 million securitization of 13 multi-family mortgage loans through a Freddie Mac-sponsored Q-Series transaction.
● The Company redeemed all outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock on April 1, 2024 for $52 million at the liquidation preference of $25.00 per share.

​

Business Overview

​

We are a diversified bank holding company headquartered in Carmel, Indiana and registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. We currently operate in multiple business segments, including Multi-family Mortgage Banking that offers multi-family housing and healthcare facility financing and servicing, as well as syndicated low-income housing tax credit and debt funds; Mortgage Warehousing that offers mortgage warehouse financing, commercial loans, and deposit services; and Banking that offers portfolio lending for multi-family and healthcare facility loans, retail and correspondent residential mortgage banking, agricultural lending, Small Business Administration (“SBA”) lending, and traditional community banking.

​

Our business consists primarily of funding fixed rate, low risk, multi-family, residential and SBA loans meeting underwriting standards of government programs under an originate to sell model, and retaining adjustable rate loans as held for investment to reduce interest rate risk. The gain on sale of these loans and servicing fees contribute to noninterest income. The funding source is primarily from mortgage custodial, municipal, retail, commercial, and brokered deposits, and short-term borrowing. We believe that the combination of net interest income and noninterest income from the sale of low risk profile assets results in lower than industry charge-offs and a lower expense base which serves to maximize net income and higher than industry shareholder return.

​

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. These estimates are based upon historical experience and on various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the current circumstances. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The estimates and judgments that management believes have the most effect on its reported financial position and results of operations are set forth within “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no significant changes in critical accounting policies or the assumptions and judgments utilized in applying these policies since those reported for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Financial Condition

As of June 30, 2024, we had approximately $18.2 billion in total assets, $14.9 billion in deposits and $1.9 billion in total shareholders’ equity. Total assets as of June 30, 2024 included approximately $540.9 million of cash and cash equivalents, $3.5 billion of loans held for sale, and $10.9 billion of loans receivable, net of Allowance for credit losses on loans (“ACL-loans”). Assets also included $209.2 million of mortgage loans in process of securitization that represent pre-sold multi-family rental real estate loan originations in primarily Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae”), Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”), and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) mortgage-backed securities pending settlements that typically occur within 30 days. There were also $1.3 billion in securities classified as held to maturity, most of which were acquired through loan securitizations.

Merchants Bancorp

Additionally, we had $1.0 billion in securities available for sale, the majority of which were acquired from a warehouse customer through loan securitizations, and others are match funded or required to collateralize our credit-linked notes. Other assets at June 30, 2024 totaled $343.1 million, which primarily represents low-income housing tax credits. Servicing rights at June 30, 2024 totaled $178.8 million based on the fair value of the loan servicing, which are primarily GNMA multi-family servicing rights with 10-year call protection.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023

Total Assets.   Total assets of $18.2 billion at June 30, 2024 increased 7% compared to $17.0 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase was due primarily to growth in the warehouse, multi-family, and healthcare loan portfolios, as well as loans held for sale.

Cash and Cash Equivalents.  Cash and cash equivalents of $540.9 million at June 30, 2024 decreased $43.5 million, or 7%, compared to $584.4 million at December 31, 2023. Included in cash equivalents was $37.0 million in restricted cash associated with the March 2023 issuance of senior credit linked notes described in Note 1: Basis of Presentation and the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10–K.

Mortgage Loans in Process of Securitization.   Mortgage loans in process of securitization of $209.2 million at June 30, 2024 increased $98.6 million, or 89%, compared to $110.6 million at December 31, 2023. These represent loans that our banking subsidiary, Merchants Bank, has funded and are held pending settlement, primarily as Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac mortgage-backed securities with a firm investor commitment to purchase the securities. The 89% increase was primarily due to a higher origination volume of loans pending settlement date.

Securities Available for Sale.   Securities available for sale of $1.0 billion at June 30, 2024 decreased $96.7 million, or 9%, compared to December 31, 2023. The decrease in securities available for sale was primarily due to $399.5 in calls, maturities, repayments, sales and other adjustments, partially offset by purchases of $302.8 million during the period.

Included in securities available for sale were $682.8 million of investments for which a fair value option was elected. Fair value option securities represent securities which the Company has elected to carry at fair value and are separately identified on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets with changes in the fair value recognized in earnings as they occur. 

As of June 30, 2024, Accumulated Other Comprehensive Losses (“AOCL”) of $0.5 million losses, related to securities available for sale, decreased $2.0 million, or 80%, compared to losses of $2.5 million at December 31, 2023. The $0.5 million of AOCL as of June 30, 2024 represented less than 1% of total equity and less than 1% of total securities available for sale.

Securities Held to Maturity.   Securities held to maturity of $1.3 billion at June 30, 2024 increased $86.9 million, or 7%, compared to $1.2 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase was due to purchases of $155.3 million partially offset by remittances of loan payments underlying the securities during the period.

Loans Held for Sale.   Loans held for sale of $3.5 billion at June 30, 2024 increased $338.3 million, or 11%, compared to $3.1 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase in loans held for sale was due primarily to an increase in warehouse participations, as we experienced higher volume. Loans held for sale are comprised primarily of single-family residential real estate loan participations that meet Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or Ginnie Mae eligibility.

​

Loans Receivable, Net.   Loans receivable, net, of $10.9 billion at June 30, 2024, which are comprised of loans held for investment, increased $805.4 million, or 8%, compared to $10.1 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase in net loans was comprised primarily of:

51

Table of Contents

Merchants Bancorp

● an increase of $617.5 million, or 82%, in mortgage warehouse repurchase agreements, to $1.4 billion at June 30, 2024 reflecting higher loan volume from increased sales efforts and market exits or reductions of competitors.
● an increase of $154.3 million, or 4%, in multi-family financing loans, to $4.2 billion at June 30, 2024 reflecting higher origination volume for construction, bridge and other loans generated through multi-family segment that will remain on our balance sheet until they convert to permanent financing or are otherwise paid off over an average of one to three years.
● an increase of $139.2 million, or 6%, in healthcare financing loans, to $2.5 billion at June 30, 2024 reflecting higher loan originations.

As of June 30, 2024, approximately 94% of the total net loans reprice within three months, which reduces the risk of market rate increases.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans (“ACL-Loans”). The ACL-Loans of $81.0 million at June 30, 2024 increased $9.3 million, or 13%, compared to December 31, 2023, primarily reflecting increases associated with loan charge-offs, increases in specific reserves, loan growth in the multi-family and healthcare portfolios, and changes to qualitative loss factors to reflect changes in industry and market conditions. Additional details provided in the ACL-Loans portion of the Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and in Note 4: Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans.

​

Also influencing the overall level of the ACL-Loans is our differentiated strategy to typically hold loans with shorter durations and to maintain agency underwriting standards that enable us to sell or refinance the majority of our loans under government programs.

Goodwill.   Goodwill of $8.0 million at June 30, 2024 decreased $7.8 million, or 49%, compared to $15.8 million at December 31, 2023. The goodwill associated with FMBI was eliminated upon the sale of their branches to unaffiliated third parties on January 26, 2024.

Servicing Rights.   Servicing rights of $178.8 million at June 30, 2024 increased $20.3 million, or 13%, compared to $158.5 million at December 31, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, originated servicing of $5.9 million and a positive fair market value adjustment of $19.0 million were partially offset by paydowns of $4.6 million. The $19.0 million positive fair market value adjustment reflected $17.7 million for multi-family mortgages and $1.3 million for single-family mortgages and SBA loans during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Servicing rights are recognized in connection with sales of loans when we retain servicing of the sold loans. The servicing rights are recorded and carried at fair value. The fair value increase recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was driven by higher interest rates that impacted fair market value adjustments. The value of servicing rights generally increases in rising interest rate environments and declines in falling interest rate environments due to expected prepayments and earnings rates on escrow deposits.

Other Assets and Receivables. Other assets and receivables of $343.1 million at June 30, 2024 increased $36.0 million, or 12%, compared to December 31, 2023. The increase in other assets and receivables was primarily due to the acquisition of low-income housing tax credit investments.

Deposits.   Deposits of $14.9 billion at June 30, 2024 increased $855.6 million, or 6%, compared to $14.1 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $1.7 billion increase in certificates of deposit that was partially offset by a $738.3 million decrease in demand deposits and a decrease of $104.2 million in savings deposits. As of June 30, 2024, approximately 79% of the total deposits reprice within three months.

52

Table of Contents

Merchants Bancorp

Core deposits increased by $705.9 million, or 9%, to $8.8 billion at June 30, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023. Core deposits represented 59% of total deposits at June 30, 2024 compared to 58% of total deposits at December 31, 2023.

We have increased our use of brokered deposits by $149.7 million, or 3%, to $6.1 billion at June 30, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023. Brokered deposits represented 41% of total deposits at June 30, 2024 compared to 42% of total deposits at December 31, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, brokered certificates of deposit had a weighted average remaining duration of 70 days.

● Brokered certificates of deposit accounts of $6.1 billion at June 30, 2024 increased by $1.7 billion, or 37%, compared to December 31, 2023.
● Brokered demand deposit accounts decreased by $1.5 million, or 100%, compared to December 31, 2023.

Compared to December 31, 2023, interest-bearing deposits increased $992.4 million, or 7%, to $14.5 billion at June 30, 2024, and noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $136.8 million, or 26%, to $383.3 million at June 30, 2024.

Uninsured deposits represented approximately 15% of total deposits. Since 2018, the Company has offered its customers an opportunity to insure balances in excess of $250,000 through our insured cash sweep program that extends FDIC protection up to $100 million. The balance of deposits in this program was $1.5 billion as of June 30, 2024 compared to $1.6 billion as of December 30, 2023 and $1.7 billion as of June 30, 2023. Our line of credit with the Federal Reserve Board could fund 118% of our uninsured deposits.

Borrowings.   Borrowings increased $195.1 million, or 20%, to $1.2 billion at June 30, 2024, compared to $964.1 million at December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to $202.6 million in additional FHLB advances. Depending on rates and timing, borrowing can be a more effective liquidity management alternative than utilizing brokered certificates of deposits. The Company primarily utilizes borrowing facilities from the FHLB, the Federal Reserve’s discount window, and AFX. See Note 11: Borrowings for further information.

The Company continues to have significant borrowing capacity based on available collateral. As of June 30, 2024, unused lines of credit totaled $7.0 billion, compared to $6.0 billion at December 31, 2023.

Total Shareholders’ Equity.   Total shareholders’ equity of $1.9 billion at June 30, 2024, increased $187.1 million, or 11%, compared to $1.7 billion as of December 31, 2023. The $187.1 million increase resulted primarily from net income of $163.4 million and net proceeds of $97.7 million from a common stock offering, which was partially offset by redemption of 7% Series A Preferred Stock for $52.0 million and dividends paid on common and preferred shares of $24.4 million during the period.

Asset Quality

Total nonperforming loans (nonaccrual and greater than 90 days late but still accruing) were $143.5 million, or 1.30%, of total loans at June 30, 2024, compared to $82.0 million, or 0.80%, of total loans at December 31, 2023 and $68.4 million, or 0.69%, at June 30, 2023. The increase in non-performing loans compared to both periods was driven by multi-family and healthcare customers with delinquent payments on variable rate loans that have required higher payments due to interest rates remaining at elevated levels.

As a percentage of nonperforming loans, the ACL-Loans was 56% at June 30, 2024 compared to 87% at December 31, 2023 and 92% at June 30, 2023. The decrease in percentage compared to both periods was due to an increase in nonperforming loans, all of which have been individually evaluated for impairment.

53

Table of Contents

Merchants Bancorp

Total loans greater than 30 days past due were $234.8 million at June 30, 2024, $183.5 million at December 31, 2023, and $92.9 million at June 30, 2023. The increase in non-performing loans compared to both periods was driven by multi-family and healthcare customers with delinquent payments on variable rate loans that have required higher payments due to interest rates remaining at elevated levels.

Loans classified as Special Mention totaled $244.0 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $191.3 million at December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to the increase in interest rates for our borrowers and the related levels of net operating income on certain properties in the healthcare financing loan portfolio.

Loans classified as Substandard totaled $246.8 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $128.6 million at December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to the increase in interest rates for our borrowers and the related levels of net operating income on certain properties in the multi-family financing loan portfolio.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024 there were $3.5 million of charge-offs and $15,000 of recoveries, compared to $9.5 million of charge-offs and $2,000 recoveries for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, there were $4.4 million of charge-offs and $16,000 of recoveries, compared to $9.5 million of charge-offs and $9,000 of recoveries for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023

General.   Net income of $76.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased by $11.1 million, or 17%, compared with $65.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by a $22.5 million, or 21%, increase in net interest income and a $12.6 million, or 56%, decrease in provision for credit losses, partially offset by a $19.5 million, or 594%, increase in provision for income tax.

Net Interest Income.    Net interest income of $128.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased $22.5 million, or 21%, compared with $105.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The 21% increase reflected higher average balances and yields on loans and loans held for sale, as well as higher average yields and balances of securities available for sale, which were partially offset by higher average balances and interest rates on deposits, as well as higher average balances on borrowings. The interest rate spread of 2.45% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased 4 basis points compared to 2.41% for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Our net interest margin increased 2 basis points, to 2.99%, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to 2.97% for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The margin was negatively impacted by approximately 6 basis points in the second quarter of 2024 from the net reversal of $2.5 million in accrued interest income associated with the movement of loans into nonaccrual status.

​

Interest Income.   Interest income of $328.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased $70.2 million, or 27%, compared with $258.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This increase reflected an increase in both average balances and yields of loans and loans held for sale, as well as securities available for sale. The higher yields were in response to higher interest rates set by the Federal Reserve.

Interest income of $284.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 for loans and loans held for sale increased $55.7 million, or 24%, compared to $228.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The average balance of loans, including loans held for sale, during the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased $2.4 billion, or 20%, to $14.3 billion compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The average yield on loans increased 30 basis points, to 7.97% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 7.67% for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in average balances of loans and loans held for sale was primarily due to increases in the multi-family, healthcare, and loans held for sale.

Interest income of $14.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 on securities available for sale increased $9.2 million, or 166%, compared to $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The average balance of securities available for sale of $1.0 billion increased $366.5 million, or 54%, compared to $672.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The average yield increased 240 basis points, to 5.72% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 3.32% for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in average balances of securities available for sale was primarily associated with the acquisition of certain securities from a warehouse customer in December 2023 that provide protective put options and interest rate floor derivatives to prevent losses in value.

Interest income of $19.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 for securities held to maturity increased $2.5 million, or 14%, compared to $17.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The average balance of securities held to maturity, during the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased $67.2 million, or 6%, to $1.2 billion compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The average yield on securities held to maturity increased 51 basis points, to 6.86% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 6.35% for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in average balance of securities held to maturity was primarily related to held maturity securities acquired as part of loan securitizations.

Interest income of $6.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 on interest-earning deposits and other increased $2.9 million, or 87%, compared to $3.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The average balance of interest-earning deposits and other of $438.4 million increased $188.7 million, or 76%, compared to $249.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The average yield increased 35 basis points, to 5.71% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 5.36% for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Interest Expense.   Total interest expense of $200.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased $47.7 million, or 31%, compared to $152.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Interest expense on deposits increased $41.9 million, or 30%, to $180.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to higher average balances and rates on certificates of deposit and interest-bearing checking accounts. The higher rates on our deposits were in response to higher interest rates set by the Federal Reserve.

Interest expense of $88.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 on certificates of deposit increased $29.6 million, or 50%, compared to $58.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The average balance of certificates of deposit of $6.5 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased $1.8 billion, or 38%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The average rate on certificates of deposit was 5.43% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, which was a 45 basis point increase compared to 4.98% for three months ended June 30, 2023.

Interest expense of $58.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 on interest-bearing checking accounts increased $9.8 million, or 20%, compared to $48.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The average balance of interest-bearing checking accounts of $4.9 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased $627.4 million, or 15%, compared to $4.3 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The average yield of interest-bearing checking accounts was 4.74% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, which was a 24 basis point increase compared to 4.50% for three months ended June 30, 2023.

Interest expense of $20.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 on borrowings increased $5.9 million, or 40%, compared to $14.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase reflected an increase of $439.8 million, or 74%, in the average balance of borrowings, to $1.0 billion compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. Also included in borrowings, our warehouse structured financing agreements provide for additional interest payments for a portion of the earnings generated. As a result, the cost of borrowings increased from a base rate of 7.53% and 9.53%, to an effective rate of 8.00% and 9.94% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Increases and decreases in interest income and interest expense result from changes in average balances (volume) of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as changes in weighted average interest rates. The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income during the periods shown. Information is provided with respect to (i) effects on interest income attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate) and (ii) effects on interest income attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). Yields have been calculated on a pre-tax basis.

Provision for Credit Losses.   We recorded a total provision for credit losses of $10.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of $12.6 million, or 56%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The 56% decrease was primarily due to lower loan charge-offs and relative changes to qualitative factors.

The provision for the three months ended June 30, 2024 reflected $3.5 million related to charge-offs, $3.8 million for specific reserves, and loan growth.

The provision for the three months ended June 30, 2023 included $8.2 million related to charge-offs, an increase of $4.6 million related to changes in qualitative factors and loss rates as well as $2.0 million for specific reserves.

The $10.0 million provision for credit losses consisted of $8.8 million for the ACL-Loans and $1.2 million for the ACL-OBCE’s. The ACL-Loans was $81.0 million, or 0.74%, of total loans, at June 30, 2024, compared to $71.8 million, or 0.70%, of total loans, at December 31, 2023, and $63.0 million, or 0.64%, at June 30, 2023.

Noninterest Income.   Noninterest income of $31.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased $1.5 million, or 5%, compared to $29.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $2.2 million, or 26%, increase in net loan servicing fees and a $1.4 million, or 46%, increase in other income, that was partially offset by a $1.3 million, or 47%, decrease in mortgage warehouse fees.

Loan servicing fees included a $5.1 million positive fair market value adjustment to servicing rights for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a $3.4 million positive adjustment to fair value of servicing rights for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Noninterest Expense.   Noninterest expense of $50.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased $6.1 million, or 14%, compared to $44.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was due primarily to a $2.6 million, or 10%, increase in salaries and employee benefits to support business growth, as well as a $1.8 million, or 47%, increase in FDIC deposit insurance expenses. The higher noninterest expense also reflected a $1.6 million, or 27%, increase in other expenses primarily associated with ongoing premium expense on the credit default swap that was executed in March 2024.

​

The efficiency ratio was at 31.59% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared with 32.71% for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

​

Income Taxes.   Income tax expense of $22.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased $19.5 million, or 594%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $13.0 million tax benefit recorded in the second quarter of 2023 that was related to tax refunds and changes to our state tax apportionment calculation. The effective tax rate was 22.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 4.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023

General.   Net income of $163.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 increased $43.2 million, or 36%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $48.9 million increase in net interest income, a $28.1 million increase in noninterest income, and a $14.8 million decrease in the provision for credit losses, partially offset by a $28.3 million increase in the provision for income taxes and a $20.2 million increase in noninterest expense.

Net Interest Income.    Net interest income of $255.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 increased $48.9 million, or 24%, compared to $206.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase reflected an increase in interest income primarily from both higher average balances and average yields on loans, securities available for sale, and securities held to maturity, partially offset by an increase in interest expense from both higher average balances and rates on certificates of deposit accounts, interest-bearing checking, and borrowings. The interest rate spread of 2.52% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased 5 basis points compared to 2.57% for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Our net interest margin decreased 4 basis points, to 3.07% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from 3.11% for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The margin was negatively impacted by approximately 3 basis points from the net reversal of $2.8 million in accrued interest income associated with the movement of loans into nonaccrual status.

Interest Income.   Interest income of $642.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 increased $173.1 million, or 37%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in average balances and higher yields of loans and loans held for sale, securities available for sale, and securities held to maturity.

Increases and decreases in interest income and interest expense result from changes in average balances (volume) of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as changes in weighted average interest rates. The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income during the periods shown. Information is provided with respect to (i) effects on interest income attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate) and (ii) effects on interest income attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). Yields have been calculated on a pre-tax basis.

Provision for Credit Losses.   We recorded a provision for credit losses of $14.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of $14.8 million, or 50%, compared to $29.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower loan charge-offs and relative changes to qualitative factors.

Noninterest Income.   Noninterest income of $72.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 increased $28.1 million, or 64%, compared to $44.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $19.3 million, or 175%, increase in loan servicing fees, a $4.5 million, or 73%, increase in other income, a $3.4 million, or 67%, increase in syndication and asset management fees, and $2.4 million, or 13%, increase in gain on sale of loans compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023.

The increase in loan servicing fees reflected higher positive adjustments to fair value of servicing rights. Included in loan servicing fees was a $19.0 million positive adjustment to the fair value of servicing rights for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a positive adjustment of $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The $4.5 million increase in other income is primarily due to $3.5 million in fee income related to derivatives. The $3.4 million increase in syndication and asset management fees increased as we continue to experience growth in this line of business.

Noninterest Expense.   Noninterest expense of $99.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 increased $20.2 million, or 26%, compared to $79.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $10.1 million, or 21%, increase in salaries and employee benefits primarily due to higher commissions associated with loan growth, as well as a $4.7 million, or 79%, increase in deposit insurance. Other expenses increased $3.1 million, or 32%, primarily due to ongoing premium expense on the credit default swap that was executed in March 2024.

The efficiency ratio was at 30.33% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared with 31.58% for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Income Taxes.   Provision for income taxes of $50.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 increased $28.3 million, or 131%, compared to $21.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase reflected a $13.0 million tax benefit recorded in the second quarter of 2023 related to tax refunds and changes to state tax apportionment calculations, as well as taxes on higher pre-tax income during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The effective tax rate was 23.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 15.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Our Segments

We operate in three primary segments: Multi-family Mortgage Banking, Mortgage Warehousing, and Banking. The reportable segments are consistent with the internal reporting and evaluation of the principal lines of business of the Company.  The Multi-family Mortgage Banking segment originates and services government sponsored mortgages for multi-family and healthcare facilities through Merchants Capital. Merchants Capital is also a fully integrated syndicator of low-income housing tax credit and debt funds.  As one of the top ranked agency affordable lenders in the nation, our licenses with Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and FHA, coupled with our bank financing products, provide sponsors with custom beginning-to-end financing solutions that adapt to an ever-changing market. We are also one of the largest Ginnie Mae servicers in the country based on aggregate loan principal value. As of June 30, 2024 the Company’s total servicing portfolio had an unpaid principal balance of $27.1 billion, primarily managed in the Multi-Family Mortgage Banking segment. Included in this amount was an unpaid principal balance of loans serviced for others of $15.9 billion, an unpaid principal balance of loans sub-serviced for others of $2.4 billion, and other servicing balances of $0.7 billion at June 30, 2024. These loans are not included in the accompanying balance sheets. The Company also manages $8.1 billion of loans for customers that have loans on the balance sheet at June 30, 2024. The servicing portfolio primarily consists of Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac loans and is a significant source of our noninterest income and deposits.

Our Mortgage Warehousing segment funds agency eligible loans for non-depository financial institutions from the date of origination or purchase until the date of sale to an investor, which typically takes less than 30 days and is a significant source of our net interest income, loans, and deposits. Mortgage Warehousing has grown to fund over $33.2 billion in 2022, $33.0 billion in 2023, and $18.8 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Mortgage Warehousing also provides commercial loans and collects deposits related to the mortgage escrow accounts of its customers.

Table of Contents

Merchants Bancorp

The Banking segment includes retail banking, commercial lending, agricultural lending, retail and correspondent residential mortgage banking, and SBA lending. Banking operates primarily in Indiana, except for correspondent mortgage banking which, like Multi-family Mortgage Banking and Mortgage Warehousing, is a national business. The Banking segment has a well-diversified customer and borrower base and has experienced significant growth over the past three years.

Our segments diversify the net income of Merchants Bank and provide synergies across the segments. Strategic opportunities come from MCC and MCS, where loans are funded by the Banking segment and the Banking segment provides Ginnie Mae custodial services to MCC and MCS. Low-income tax credit syndication and debt fund offerings complement the lending activities of new and existing multi-family mortgage customers. The securities available for sale and held to maturity funded by MCC custodial deposits or purchases of securitized loans originated by MCC are pledged to the FHLB to provide advance capacity during periods of high residential loan volume for Mortgage Warehousing. Mortgage Warehousing provides leads to Correspondent Residential Lending in the Banking segment. Retail and commercial customers provide cross selling opportunities within the banking segment. Merchants Mortgage is a risk mitigant to Mortgage Warehousing because it provides us with a ready platform to sell or refinance the underlying collateral to secure repayment. These and other synergies form a part of our strategic plan.

The Other segment presented below, in Note 16: Segment Information, and elsewhere in this report includes general and administrative expenses for provision of services to all segments, internal funds transfer pricing offsets resulting from allocations to or from the other segments, certain elimination entries, and investments in low-income housing tax credit limited partnerships or Limited Liability Companies (“LLC”).

For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we had total net income of $76.4 million and $65.3 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we had total net income of $163.4 million and $120.3 million, respectively. Net income and assets for our segments for the respective periods was as follows:

Multi-family Mortgage Banking.    

Comparison of results for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

The Multi-family Mortgage Banking segment reported net income of $9.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of $2.2 million, or 20%, compared to $11.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in net income was primarily due to a tax benefit recorded in the second quarter of 2023 that was related to tax refunds and changes in state tax apportionment calculations.

Results included a $4.5 million positive fair market value adjustment to servicing rights for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to a $2.1 million positive fair market value adjustment for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Table of Contents

Merchants Bancorp

The volume of loans originated and acquired for sale in the secondary market decreased by $329.5 million, or 49%, to $338.7 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $668.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Comparison of results for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

The Multi-family Mortgage Banking segment reported net income of $25.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $12.4 million, or 94%, from the $13.2 million of net income reported for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in net income was primarily due to a $19.9 million increase in servicing fees, as well as a $3.3 million increase in syndication and asset management fees as we continue to see growth in this line of business, and a $1.4 million increase in gain on sale of loans. These increases to net income were partially offset by a $5.6 million increase in noninterest expense, primarily associated with an $8.0 million increase in income tax expense reflecting a tax benefit recorded in the second quarter of 2023 related to tax refunds and changes in state tax apportionment calculations, as well as higher salaries and benefits to support business growth.

Loan servicing fees for the six months ended June 30, 2024 included a positive fair market value adjustment of $17.7 million on servicing rights, compared to a negative fair market value adjustment of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

The volume of loans originated and acquired for sale in the secondary market decreased by $190.9 million, or 24%, to $591.4 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $782.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Mortgage Warehousing.  

Comparison of results for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

The Mortgage Warehousing segment reported net income of $22.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $3.7 million, or 20%, compared to $18.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in net income reflected higher net interest income as volumes increased.

There was a 30% increase in warehouse loan volume of $10.9 billion compared to $8.4 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2023, which compared to an industry volume decrease of 7% according to the Mortgage Bankers Association.

Comparison of results for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

The Mortgage Warehousing segment reported net income for the six months ended June 30, 2024 of $42.5 million, an increase of $15.2 million, or 56%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in net income reflected higher net interest income as volumes increased.

There was a 36% increase in warehouse loan volume of $18.8 billion compared to $13.8 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which compared to an industry volume increase of 1% according to the Mortgage Bankers Association.

Banking.   

Comparison of results for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

The Banking segment reported net income of $52.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $9.7 million, or 23%, compared to $42.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in net income was primarily due to higher net interest income from higher average balances and yields on loans and loans held for sale that were partially offset by higher average balances and rates on deposits.

Noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2024 included a positive fair market value adjustment of $0.6 million on single-family servicing rights, compared to a positive fair market value adjustment of $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Comparison of results for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

The Banking segment reported net income of $108.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $16.8 million, or 18%, compared to $92.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in net income was primarily due to higher net interest income from higher average balances and yields on loans that were partially offset by increased interest expense primarily due to higher average balances and rates on deposits and borrowings.

Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2024 included a positive fair market value adjustment of $1.3 million on single-family servicing rights, compared to a positive fair market value adjustment of $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity.

Our primary sources of funds are business and consumer deposits, escrow and custodial deposits, brokered deposits, borrowings, principal and interest payments on loans, interest on investment securities, and proceeds from sale of loans. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions, and competition.

At June 30, 2024, based on collateral, we had $7.0 billion in available unused borrowing capacity with the FHLB and the Federal Reserve discount window. This compared to $6.0 billion at December 31, 2023. While the amounts available fluctuate daily, we also had available capacity lines through our membership in the AFX. This liquidity enhances the ability to effectively manage interest expense and asset levels in the future.

The Company’s most liquid assets are in cash, short-term investments, including interest-earning demand deposits, mortgage loans in process of securitization, loans held for sale, and warehouse lines of credit included in loans receivable. Taken together with its unused borrowing capacity of $7.0 billion described above, these totaled $12.6 billion, or 69%, of its $18.2 billion total assets at June 30, 2024. The levels of these assets are dependent on our operating, financing, lending, and investing activities during any given period.

Our liquid assets and borrowing capacity significantly exceed our uninsured deposits. Uninsured deposits represent approximately 15% of total deposits. Our line of credit with Federal Reserve Board, alone, could fund 118% of uninsured deposits. Since 2018, the Company has offered its customers an opportunity to insure balances in excess of $250,000 through our insured cash sweep program that extends FDIC protection up to $100 million. The balance of deposits in this program was $1.5 billion and $1.6 billion as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

The Company’s investment portfolio has minimal levels of unrealized losses and management does not anticipate a need to sell securities for liquidity purposes at a loss. As of June 30, 2024, Accumulated Other Comprehensive Losses (“AOCL”) of $0.5 million losses, related to securities available for sale, decreased $2.0 million, or 80%, compared to losses of $2.5 million as of December 31, 2023. The $0.5 million of AOCL as of June 30, 2024 represented less than 1% of total equity and 1% of total securities available for sale.

Our cash flows are comprised of three primary classifications: cash flows from operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities. Net cash used in operating activities was ($332.7) million and $(543.0) million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Net cash used in investing activities, which consists primarily of net change in loans receivable and purchases, sales and maturities of investment securities and loans, was $(1.0) billion and $(2.4) billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Net cash provided by financing activities, which is comprised primarily of net change in borrowings and deposits was $1.3 billion and $3.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Certificates of deposit that are scheduled to mature in less than one year from June 30, 2024 totaled $6.8 billion, or 98%, of total certificates of deposit. Management expects that a substantial portion of the maturing certificates of deposit will be renewed. However, if a substantial portion of these deposits is not retained, we may decide to utilize FHLB advances, the Federal Reserve discount window, brokered deposits, or raise interest rates on deposits to attract new accounts, which may result in higher levels of interest expense.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.

In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments, lines of credit and standby letters of credit.

At June 30, 2024, we had $3.9 billion in outstanding commitments to extend credit that are subject to credit risk and $3.7 billion outstanding commitments subject to certain performance criteria and cancellation by the Company, including loans pending closing, unfunded construction draws, and unfunded lines of warehouse credit. We anticipate that we will have sufficient funds available to meet our current loan origination commitments. Additionally, the Company’s business model is designed to continuously sell a significant portion of its loans, which provides flexibility in managing its liquidity.

Capital Resources.

The access to and cost of funding new business initiatives, the ability to engage in expanded business activities, the ability to pay dividends, the level of deposit insurance costs and the level and nature of regulatory oversight depend, in part, on our capital position. The Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC on August 8, 2022, which was declared effective on August 17, 2022, under which we can issue up to $500 million aggregate offering amount of registered securities to finance our growth objectives. As previously demonstrated, the Company also has the ability to utilize securitization transactions to free up capital as needed.

​

The assessment of capital adequacy depends on a number of factors, including asset quality, liquidity, earnings performance, changing competitive conditions and economic forces. We seek to maintain a strong capital base to support our growth and expansion activities, to provide stability to our current operations and to promote public confidence in our Company.

​

Shareholders’ Equity. Shareholders’ equity was $1.9 billion as of June 30, 2024, compared to $1.7 billion as of December 31, 2023. The $187.1 million or 11%, increase resulted primarily from net income of $163.4 million and net proceeds of $97.7 million from a common stock offering, which was partially offset by redemption of 7% Series A Preferred Stock for $52.0 million and dividends paid on common and preferred shares of $24.4 million during the period.

7% Series A Preferred Stock. In March 2019 the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of 7.00% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Series A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, without par value, and with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”). The Company received net proceeds of $48.3 million after underwriting discounts, commissions and direct offering expenses. In April 2019, the Company issued an additional 81,800 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the underwriters related to their exercise of an option to purchase additional shares under the associated underwriting agreement, resulting in an addition $2.0 million in net proceeds, after underwriting discounts.

Table of Contents

Merchants Bancorp

The Company redeemed all outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock on April 1, 2024 for $52 million at a price equal to the liquidation preference of $25.00 per share, using cash on hand.

6% Series B Preferred Stock. In August 2019 the Company issued 5,000,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/40th interest in a share of its 6.00% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Series B Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, without par value, and with a liquidation preference of $1,000.00 per share (equivalent to $25.00 per depositary share)(“Series B Preferred Stock”). After deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and direct offering expenses, the Company received total net proceeds of $120.8 million.

Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock, to the extent declared by the Company’s board, are payable quarterly at an annual rate of $60.00 per share (equivalent to $1.50 per depositary share) through September 30, 2024. After such date, quarterly dividends were to accrue and be payable at a floating rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus a spread of 456.9 basis points per year. However, the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock permit us to replace three-month LIBOR if we determine that LIBOR has been discontinued or is no longer viewed as an acceptable benchmark for similar securities. With the cessation of published three-month LIBOR rates as of June 30, 2023, the Company has determined that three-month LIBOR has been discontinued and is no longer an acceptable benchmark. The Company has replaced three-month LIBOR with Federal Reserve’s three month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The Company believes that three-month SOFR represents the most comparable replacement benchmark, is an industry-accepted substitute, and is consistent with expectations of investors in securities similar to the Series B Preferred Stock. In addition to replacing three-month LIBOR with three-month SOFR, the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock permit us to adjust the spread to ensure that the payable floating rate remains comparable. Therefore, if the Series B Preferred Stock remains outstanding on or after October 1, 2024, in addition to using three-month SOFR as the benchmark, the Company will increase the spread by 26.2 basis points, which is consistent with industry practice and the recommendation of the Federal Reserve’s Alternative Reference Rates Committee, resulting in the Company paying a floating rate of three-month SOFR plus a spread of 483.1 basis points during the floating rate period. The Company may also redeem the Series B Preferred Stock at its option, subject to regulatory approval, on or after October 1, 2024.

6% Series C Preferred Stock. On March 23, 2021, the Company issued 6,000,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/40th interest in a share of its 6.00% Fixed Rate Series C Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, without par value (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), and with a liquidation preference of $1,000.00 per share (equivalent to $25.00 per depositary share). The aggregate gross offering proceeds for the shares issued by the Company was $150.0 million, and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses of approximately $5.1 million paid to third parties, the Company received total net proceeds of $144.9 million.

On May 6, 2021, our 8% preferred shareholders participated in a private offering to replace their redeemed 8% preferred shares with the Company’s 6% Series C preferred stock. Accordingly, 46,181 shares (1,847,233 depositary shares) of the Company’s 6% Series C preferred stock were issued at a price of $25 per depositary share. The total capital raised from the private offering was $46.2 million, net of $23,000 in expenses.

Dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock, to the extent declared by the Company’s board, are payable quarterly. The Company may redeem the Series C Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at our option, on any dividend payment date on or after April 1, 2026, subject to the approval of the appropriate federal banking agency, at the liquidation preference, plus any declared and unpaid dividends (without regard to any undeclared dividends) to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

8.25% Series D Preferred Stock. On September 27, 2022, the Company issued 5,200,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/40th interest in a share of its 8.25% Fixed Rate Reset Series D Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, without par value (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), and with a liquidation preference of $1,000.00 per share (equivalent to $25.00 per depositary share). The aggregate gross offering proceeds for the shares issued by the Company was $130.0 million, and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses of approximately $4.6 million paid to third parties, the Company received total net proceeds of $125.4 million. On September 30, 2022, the Company issued an additional 500,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock to the underwriters related to their exercise of an option to purchase additional shares under the associated underwriting agreement, resulting in an additional $12.1 million in net proceeds, after deducting $0.4 million in underwriting discounts.

Dividends on the Series D Preferred Stock, to the extent declared by the Company’s board, are payable quarterly. The Company may redeem the Series D Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at our option, on any dividend payment date on or after October 1, 2027, subject to the approval of the appropriate federal banking agency, at the liquidation preference, plus any declared and unpaid dividends (without regard to any undeclared dividends) to, but excluding, the date of redemption. If the Series D Preferred Stock remains outstanding on October 1, 2027, its dividend rate would reset to the 5-year Treasury rate, plus 4.34% and would remain at that level for an additional 5 years.

Common Shares/Dividends. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had 45,757,567 common shares issued and outstanding. The Board expects to declare a quarterly dividend of $0.09 per share in each quarter of 2024.

​

On May 13, 2024, the Company issued 2.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock, without par value, at a public offering price of $43.00 per share in an underwritten public offering. The aggregate gross offering proceeds for the shares issued by the Company was $103.2 million, and after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and offering expenses of $5.5 million paid to third parties, the Company received total net proceeds of $97.7 million.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and Merchants Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table above). Management believes, as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, that the Company and Merchants Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject. For additional information regarding dividend restrictions, see the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10–K.

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the most recent notifications from the Federal Reserve categorized the Company as well capitalized and most recent notifications from the FDIC categorized Merchants Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Company’s or Merchants Bank’s category.

FMBI was subject to these measures prior to the sale of its branches and the merger of its remaining charter into Merchants Bank in January 2024. As of December 31, 2023, FMBI met all capital adequacy requirements (as set forth in the table above). The FDIC categorized FMBI as well capitalized at that time and there are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes would have changed that category.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market Risk. Market risk represents the risk of loss due to changes in market values of assets and liabilities. We incur market risk in the normal course of business through exposures to market interest rates, equity prices, and credit spreads. We have identified two primary sources of market risk: interest rate risk and price risk related to market demand.

Interest Rate Risk

Overview. Interest rate risk is the risk to earnings and value arising from changes in market interest rates. Interest rate risk arises from timing differences in the repricings and maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities (reprice risk), changes in the expected maturities of assets and liabilities arising from embedded options, such as borrowers’ ability to prepay residential mortgage loans at any time and depositors’ ability to redeem certificates of deposit before maturity (option risk), changes in the shape of the yield curve where interest rates increase or decrease in a nonparallel fashion (yield curve risk), and changes in spread relationships between different yield curves, such as U.S. Treasuries or SOFR.

​

Our business consists primarily of funding fixed rate, low risk, multi-family, residential and SBA loans meeting underwriting standards of government programs under an originate to sell model, and retaining adjustable rate loans as held for investment to reduce interest rate risk.

​

Our Asset-Liability Committee, or ALCO, is a management committee that manages our interest rate risk within policy limits established by our board of directors. In general, we seek to minimize the impact of changing interest rates on net interest income and the economic values of assets and liabilities. Our ALCO meets quarterly, at a minimum, to monitor the level of interest rate risk sensitivity to ensure compliance with the board of directors’ approved risk limits. Additionally, the Risk Committee meets quarterly, in conjunction with Board meetings, to assess risks associated with interest rate sensitivity.

​

Interest rate risk management is an active process that encompasses monitoring loan and deposit flows complemented by investment and funding activities. Effective management of interest rate risk begins with understanding the dynamic characteristics of assets and liabilities and determining the appropriate interest rate risk posture given business forecasts, management objectives, market expectations, and policy constraints.

An asset sensitive position refers to a balance sheet position in which an increase in short-term interest rates is expected to generate higher net interest income, as rates earned on our interest-earning assets would reprice upward more quickly than rates paid on our interest-bearing liabilities, thus expanding our net interest margin. Conversely, a liability sensitive position refers to a balance sheet position in which an increase in short-term interest rates is expected to generate lower net interest income, as rates paid on our interest-bearing liabilities would reprice upward more quickly than rates earned on our interest-earning assets, thus compressing our net interest margin.

Income Simulation and Economic Value Analysis. Interest rate risk measurement is calculated and reported to the ALCO at least quarterly. The information reported includes period-end results and identifies any policy limits exceeded, along with an assessment of the policy limit breach and the action plan and timeline for resolution, mitigation, or assumption of the risk.

We use two approaches to model interest rate risk: Net Interest Income at Risk (NII at Risk) and Economic Value of Equity (“EVE”). Under NII at Risk, net interest income is modeled utilizing various assumptions for assets, liabilities, and derivatives and excludes non-interest income. EVE measures the period end market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities and the change in this value as rates change. EVE is a period end measurement.

We report NII at Risk to isolate the change in income related solely to interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The NII at Risk results reflect the analysis used quarterly by management. It models gradual -200, -100, +100 and +200 basis point parallel shifts in market interest rates, implied by the forward yield curve over the next one-year period.

Our interest rate risk management policy limits the change in our EVE to 15% for a +/- 100 basis point move in interest rates, and 20% for a +/- 200 basis point move in rates. We are within policy limits set by our board of directors for the -200, -100, +100 and +200 basis point scenarios. The EVE reported at June 30, 2024 projects that as interest rates increase (decrease) immediately, the economic value of equity position will be expected to decrease (increase). When interest rates rise, fixed rate assets generally lose economic value; the longer the duration, the greater the value lost. The opposite is true when interest rates fall.
