INDEPENDENT BANK CORPORATION REPORTS 2025 THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
Third Quarter Highlights
Highlights for the third quarter of 2025 include:
•Increase in net interest income of $0.7 million (or 1.7% ) over the second quarter of 2025;
•Increase in tangible common equity per share of common stock of $1.06 (or 20.0% annualized) from June 30, 2025;
•Net growth in total deposits, less brokered time deposits of $148.2 million (or 13.0% annualized) from June 30, 2025;
•Net growth in loans of $33.9 million (or 3.2% annualized) from June 30, 2025; and
•The payment of a 26 cent per share dividend on common stock on August 15, 2025.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., October 28, 2025 - Independent Bank Corporation (NASDAQ: IBCP) reported third quarter 2025 net income of $17.5 million, or $0.84 per diluted share, versus net income of $13.8 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, in the prior-year period.
William B. (“Brad”) Kessel, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Independent Bank Corporation, commented: “
I am proud of our team’s performance and pleased to report continued positive momentum in our third quarter 2025 results. Loan balances grew at an annualized rate of 3.2%, and total deposits, less brokered time deposits increased by 13.0% (annualized). We achieved growth in net interest income both sequentially and year-over-year. Our net interest margin displayed a small decline on a linked quarter basis primarily due to the acceleration of unamortized issuance costs on subordinated debt we redeemed in the third quarter. I would characterize the NIM as stable when adjusting for this event. Expense management remains a strength, as reflected in our third-quarter efficiency ratio of 58.86%, which demonstrates the effectiveness of our recent strategic investments. These solid fundamentals supported a 10.2% year-over-year increase in tangible common equity per share and strong returns, including a return on average assets of 1.27% and a return on average equity of 14.57%. Despite market uncertainty, our credit quality remains strong, with watch credits at low levels. Non-performing assets increased from 0.16% of total assets to 0.38% of total assets on a quarter-over-quarter basis primarily as the result of one commercial relationship where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties. Our
annualized net charge-offs continue at historically low levels, four basis points through the first three quarters of 2025. The allowance for credit losses stands at 1.49% of total loans. I am optimistic we will finish 2025 strong and remain excited about our prospects to grow our customer base and earnings in 2026.”
Significant items impacting comparable third quarter 2025 and 2024 results include the following:
•Changes in the fair value due to price of capitalized mortgage loan servicing rights (the “MSR Changes”) of $(0.6) million ($(0.02) per diluted share, after taxes) for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $(4.2) million ($(0.16) per diluted share, after taxes) for the three-month period ended September 30, 2024.
Operating Results
The Company’s net interest income totaled $45.4 million during the third quarter of 2025, an increase of $3.5 million, or 8.4% from the year-ago period, and an increase of $0.7 million, or 1.7%, from the second quarter of 2025. The Company’s tax equivalent net interest income as a percent of average interest-earning assets (the “net interest margin”) was 3.54% during the third quarter of 2025, compared to 3.37% in the year-ago period, and 3.58% in the second quarter of 2025. The year-over-year quarterly increase in net interest income was due to both an increase in average interest-earning assets and the higher net interest margin. The linked quarter increase in net interest income was due to an increase in average interest-earning assets that was partially offset by a modest decrease in net interest margin. Average interest-earning assets were $5.16 billion in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $4.99 billion in the year-ago quarter and $5.04 billion in the second quarter of 2025.
Non-interest income totaled $11.9 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $9.5 million in the comparable prior year period. This change was primarily due to variances in mortgage banking related revenues.
Net gains on mortgage loans in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024 were approximately $1.5 million and $2.2 million, respectively. The comparative quarterly decrease in net gains on mortgage loans was due to a decrease in both gain on sale margin on mortgage loans sold and a decrease in the volume of mortgage loans sold.
Mortgage loan servicing, net, generated income (expense) of $0.1 million and $(3.1) million in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively. The significant variance in mortgage loan servicing, net is primarily due to changes in the fair value of capitalized mortgage loan servicing rights associated with changes in interest rates and the associated expected future prepayment levels and expected float rates as well as a decline in servicing revenue. The decline in servicing revenue is attributed to the sale of approximately $931 million of mortgage servicing rights on January 31, 2025. Capitalized mortgage loan servicing rights totaled $31.5 million and $46.8 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The decline during the first nine months of 2025 was primarily attributable to the aforementioned mortgage servicing right sale. This transaction was executed in part to reduce the amount of exposure the Company had to rate variances that may impact the mortgage servicing right asset valuation in future periods. While the magnitude of fair value adjustments would also be expected to decrease, those adjustments are dependent upon factors that are harder to predict.
Mortgage loan servicing, net activity is summarized in the following table:
| Three months ended | Nine months ended | |||||||

| Total | $ | 74 | $ | (3,130) | $ | (72) | $ | 1,686 |
Non-interest expenses totaled $34.1 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $32.6 million in the year-ago period.
The Company recorded income tax expense of $3.7 million in the third quarter of 2025. This compares to an income tax expense of $3.5 million in the third quarter of 2024. The change in income tax expense principally reflects changes in pre-tax earnings in 2025 relative to 2024.
Asset Quality
A breakdown of non-performing loans by loan type is as follows (1):
| 9/30/2025 | 12/31/2024 | 9/30/2024 | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Loan Type | (Dollars in thousands) | ||||||||
| Commercial | $ | 13,825 | $ | 54 | $ | 59 | |||
| Mortgage | 7,873 | 7,005 | 6,525 | ||||||

| Sub total | 22,598 | 7,792 | 7,250 | ||||||

| Total non-performing loans | $ | 20,355 | $ | 6,002 | $ | 5,148 | |||
| Ratio of non-performing loans to total portfolio loans | 0.48 | % | 0.15 | % | 0.13 | % | |||
| Ratio of non-performing assets to total assets | 0.38 | % | 0.13 | % | 0.11 | % | |||
| Ratio of allowance for credit losses to total non-performing loans | 306.85 | % | 989.32 | % | 1115.85 | % |
(1) Non performing loans include non-accrual loans and loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest.
The provision for credit losses was an expense of $1.99 million and $1.49 million in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively. We recorded loan net charge offs of $0.73 million and $0.31 million in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively. At September 30, 2025, the allowance for credit losses for loans totaled $62.5 million, or 1.49% of total portfolio loans compared to $59.4 million, or 1.47% of total portfolio loans at December 31, 2024.
Balance Sheet, Capital and Liquidity
Total assets were $5.49 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $155.0 million from December 31, 2024. Loans, excluding loans held for sale, were $4.20 billion at September 30, 2025, compared to $4.04 billion at December 31, 2024. Deposits totaled $4.86 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $205.1 million from December 31, 2024. This increase is primarily due to increases in savings and interest-bearing checking, reciprocal, time and brokered time deposits that were partially offset by decreases in non-interest bearing deposits.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $208.7 million at September 30, 2025, versus $119.9 million at December 31, 2024. Securities available for sale (“AFS”) totaled $502.6 million at September 30, 2025, versus $559.2 million at December 31, 2024.
On August 31, 2025 we redeemed our $40 million floating subordinated notes. This redemption did not affect our status as well-capitalized for regulatory purposes or have a material impact on our liquidity resources.
Total shareholders’ equity was $490.7 million at September 30, 2025, or 8.93% of total assets compared to $454.7 million or 8.52% at December 31, 2024. Tangible common equity totaled $461.3 million at September 30, 2025, or $22.29 per share compared to $424.9 million or $20.33 per share at December 31, 2024. The increases in shareholders’ equity as well as tangible common equity are primarily the result of earnings retention and a reduction in the accumulated other comprehensive loss.
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Independent Bank, remains significantly above “well capitalized” for regulatory purposes with the following ratios:
| Regulatory Capital Ratios | 9/30/2025 | 12/31/2024 | Well<br>Capitalized<br>Minimum | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tier 1 capital to average total assets | 9.19 | % | 9.58 | % | 5.00 | % |
| Common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets | 11.33 | % | 11.74 | % | 6.50 | % |
| Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets | 11.33 | % | 11.74 | % | 8.00 | % |
| Total capital to risk-weighted assets | 12.58 | % | 12.99 | % | 10.00 | % |
At September 30, 2025, in addition to liquidity available from our normal operating, funding, and investing activities, we had unused credit lines with the FHLB and FRB of approximately $1.15 billion and $468.8 million, respectively. We also had approximately $465.9 million in fair value of unpledged securities AFS and HTM at September 30, 2025 which could be pledged for an estimated additional borrowing capacity at the FHLB and FRB of approximately $437.3 million.
Share Repurchase Plan
On December 17, 2024, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the 2025 share repurchase plan. Under the terms of the 2025 share repurchase plan, the Company is authorized to purchase up to 1,100,000 shares, or approximately 5% of its then outstanding common stock. The repurchase plan is authorized to last through December 31, 2025. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2025, there were 266,008 shares of common stock repurchased, for an aggregate purchase price of $7.77 million.

Earnings Call: Third Quarter 2025 October 28, 2025 (NASDAQ: IBCP)

Cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements, which are any statements or information that are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements include statements about our anticipated future revenue and expenses and our future plans and prospects. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. For example, deterioration in general business and economic conditions or turbulence in domestic or global financial markets could adversely affect our revenues and the values of our assets and liabilities, reduce the availability of funding to us, lead to a tightening of credit, and increase stock price volatility. Our results could also be adversely affected by changes in interest rates; increases in unemployment rates; deterioration in the credit quality of our loan portfolios or in the value of the collateral securing those loans; deterioration in the value of our investment securities; legal and regulatory developments; changes in customer behavior and preferences; breaches in data security; and management’s ability to effectively manage the multitude of risks facing our business. Key risk factors that could affect our future results are described in more detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the other reports we file with the SEC, including under the heading “Risk Factors.” Investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of our future results. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. 2 2

Asset yields were augmented by a shift in asset mix with commercial loan growth largely funded by runoff of lower yielding investments, mortgages and consumer loans. An increase in overnight liquidity offset some of this mix benefit. Funding costs benefited from the retirement of the holding company subordinated debt issue. • The NII sensitivity position shows slightly more exposure to a declining rate environment. Asset repricing increased due to growth in variable rate commercial loans HELOCs and overnight liquidity. Some of the increase in asset repricing was offset by purchased floor. • Base-rate is a static balance sheet applying the spot yield curve from the valuation date. • Stable core funding base. Transaction accounts fund 37.6% of assets and other non- maturity deposits fund another 17.8% of assets. Low wholesale funding of just 3.9% of assets. • 38.4% of assets reprice in 1 month and 49.8% reprice in the next 12 months. • Continually evaluating strategies to manage NII through hedging, funding strategies as well as product pricing and structure. Changes in Net Interest Income (Dollars in 000’s) Simulation analyses calculate the change in net interest income over the next twelve months, under immediate parallel shifts in interest rates, based upon a static statement of financial condition, which includes derivative instruments, and does not consider loan fees. 13

The decrease in servicing revenue is attributed to the sale of approximately $931 million of mortgage servicing rights on January 31, 2025. • Mortgage banking: − $1.5 million in net gains on mortgage loans in 3Q'25 vs. $2.2 million in the year ago quarter. The decrease is primarily due to lower profit margins on mortgage loan sales as well as lower loan sales volume. − $145.6 million in mortgage loan originations in 3Q'25 vs. $147.5 million in 3Q’24 and $147.8 million in 2Q'25. − 3Q'25 mortgage loan servicing includes a $0.6 million ($0.02) per diluted share, after tax) decrease in fair value adjustment due to price compared to a decrease of $4.2 million ($0.16 per diluted share, after tax) in the year ago quarter.

Outlook for 2025 • Very difficult area to forecast. Future provision levels under CECL will be particularly sensitive to loan growth and mix, projected economic conditions, watch credit levels and loan default volumes. • The allowance as a percentage of total loans was at 1.47% at 12/31/24 • A full year 2025 provision (expense) for credit losses of approximately 0.15%-0.20% of average total portfolio loans would not be unreasonable. • The forecast assumes 0.25% Fed rate cuts in March and August in the federal funds rate while long-term interest rates increase slightly over year-end 2024 levels. • IBCP forecast of high-single digit (8%-9%) growth is primarily supported by an increase in earning assets and a favorable shift in the earning asset base. Expect the net interest margin (NIM) to increase (0.20% - 0.25%) in 2025 compared to full-year 2024. Primary driver is a decrease in yield on interest bearing liabilities that is partially offset by a decrease in earning asset yield. • IBCP forecast of mid-single digit (approximately 5%-6%) overall loan growth is based on increases in commercial loans (9%-10%) and mortgage loans (2%-3%) with installment loans declining (2%-3%). • This growth forecast also assumes a stable Michigan economy. Outlook for 2025 *as of January, 2025 • The provision for credit losses was an expense of $2.0 million (0.19% annualized) for the third quarter within the forecasted range. • 3Q'25 net interest income was $3.5 million (8.4%) higher than the prior year quarter which is within the forecasted range. The net interest margin was 3.54% for the current quarter and 3.37% for the prior year quarter and down 0.04% from the linked quarter. • Total portfolio loans increased $33.9 million (3.2% annualized) in 3Q'25 which is below our forecasted range. Commercial loan growth of $57.0 million (10.9% annualized), mortgage loan decrease of $10.7 million (-2.8% annualized) and installment loan decrease of $12.4 million (-8.6% annualized). YTD loan growth of $159.5 million (5.3% annualized) which is within our forecasted range. 3Q’25 Update LENDING Continued growth NET INTEREST INCOME Growth driven primarily by higher average earning assets PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES Steady asset quality metrics 16

Outlook for 2025 • 2025 share repurchase authorization at approximately 5% (1.1 million) of outstanding shares. • Share repurchases will be dependent on capital levels, capital allocation options and share price trends. We are not modeling any share repurchases in 2025. • Approximately a 19% effective income tax rate in 2025 This assumes a 21% statutory federal corporate income tax rate during 2025. • IBCP forecasts 2025 quarterly range of $34.5M to $35.5M with the total for the year up 3.0% to 4.0% from the 2024 actual of $135.1M. • The primary driver is an increase in compensation and employee benefits, data processing and occupancy. • Q1/Q2 quarterly 2025 forecasted range of $11.0M to $12.0M and Q3/Q4 forecast of $12.0M to $13M. Full year down 14.0% to 14.5% from 2024 actual of $56.4M • Expect mortgage loan origination volumes and net gain on sale to be similar to 2024. Assumes mortgage loan servicing net of approximately $0.75M per quarter in 2025. Outlook for 2025 *as of January, 2025 Repurchased 13,732 shares for an aggregate purchase price of $0.41 million in the third quarter of 2025. Actual effective income tax rate of 17.3% for the third quarter of 2025. • Total non-interest expense was $34.1 million in the 3Q'25, which was lower than our forecasted range. • Non-interest income totaled $11.9 million in 3Q'25, which is below the forecasted range. Mortgage loan servicing net, generated a gain of $0.1 million in 3Q'25. 3Q’25 Update NON-INTEREST INCOME NON-INTEREST EXPENSES INCOME TAXES SHARE REPURCHASES 17
