Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Table amounts in thousands, except per share data, unaudited)

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accounting policies followed in the preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used in the preparation of the annual financial information. The interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments, which are necessary, in the opinion of management, for a fair statement of results for the interim period presented. Results for the period ended March 31, 2015, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015. These interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes included in Old Second Bancorp, Inc.’s (the “Company”) annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Unless otherwise indicated, amounts in the tables contained in the notes to the consolidated financial statements are in thousands. Certain items in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and follow general practices within the banking industry. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Future changes in information may affect these estimates, assumptions, and judgments, which, in turn, may affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements.

All significant accounting policies are presented in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the other financial statement notes and in this discussion, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the consolidated financial statements and how those values are determined.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)." The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The amendments can be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying this update recognized at the date of initial application. Early application is not permitted. The Company is assessing the impact of ASU 2014-09 on its accounting and disclosures. On April 1, 2015, the FASB voted to propose a delay in the effective date of ASU 2014 – 09. On April 29, 2015, FASB issued a proposed accounting standards update to defer the effective date of an additional year. If the proposal is approved, the standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. FASB requested comments on the proposal by May 29, 2015.

Note 2 – Securities

Investment Portfolio Management

Our investment portfolio serves the liquidity and income needs of the Company. While the portfolio serves as an important component of the overall liquidity management at the Bank, portions of the portfolio will also serve as income producing assets. The size and composition of the portfolio reflects liquidity needs, loan demand and interest income objectives.

Portfolio size and composition will be adjusted from time to time. While a significant portion of the portfolio consists of readily marketable securities to address liquidity, other parts of the portfolio may reflect funds invested pending future loan demand or to maximize interest income without undue interest rate risk.

Investments are comprised of debt securities and non-marketable equity investments. Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, on securities available-for-sale are reported as a separate component of equity. This balance sheet component changes as interest rates and market conditions change. Unrealized gains and losses are not included in the calculation of regulatory capital.

Table of Contents

Securities held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost and the discount or premium created in the 2013 transfer from available-for-sale securities or at the time of purchase thereafter is accreted or amortized to the maturity or expected payoff date but not an earlier call. In accordance with GAAP, the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity.

Nonmarketable equity investments include Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (“FHLBC”) stock and Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago (“Reserve Bank”) stock. FHLBC stock was recorded at $4.3 million at March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014. Reserve Bank stock was recorded at $4.8 million at March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014. Our FHLBC stock is necessary to maintain access to FHLBC advances.

The following table summarizes the amortized cost and fair value of the securities portfolio at March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014, and the corresponding amounts of gross unrealized gains and losses (in thousands):

Recognition of other-than-temporary impairment was not necessary in the three months ending March 31, 2015, or the year ended December 31, 2014. The changes in fair value related primarily to interest rate fluctuations. Our review of other-than-temporary impairment confirmed no credit quality deterioration.

It is the policy of the Company to review each prospective credit in order to determine if an adequate level of security or collateral was obtained prior to making a loan. The type of collateral, when required, will vary from liquid assets to real estate. The Company’s access to collateral, in the event of borrower default, is assured through adherence to lending laws, the Company’s lending standards and credit monitoring procedures. The Bank generally makes loans solely within its market area. There are no significant concentrations of loans where the customers’ ability to honor loan terms is dependent upon a single economic sector although the real estate related categories listed above represent 87.9% and 87.6% of the portfolio at March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014, respectively.

1. The “All other” class includes overdrafts and net deferred costs.

Credit Quality Indicators:

The Company categorizes loans into credit risk categories based on current financial information, overall debt service coverage, comparison against industry averages, historical payment experience, and current economic trends. This analysis includes loans with outstanding balances or commitments greater than $50,000 and excludes homogeneous loans such as home equity lines of credit and residential mortgages. Loans with a classified risk rating are reviewed quarterly regardless of size or loan type. The Company uses the following definitions for classified risk ratings:

Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan at some future date.

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

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

Credits that are not covered by the definitions above are pass credits, which are not considered to be adversely rated.

Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) are loans for which the contractual terms have been modified and both of these conditions exist: (1) there is a concession to the borrower and (2) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties. Loans are restructured on a case-by-case basis during the loan collection process with modifications generally initiated at the request of the borrower. These modifications may include reduction in interest rates, extension of term, deferrals of principal, and other modifications. The Bank participates in the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s (the “Treasury”) Home Affordable Modification Program (“HAMP”) which gives qualifying homeowners an opportunity to refinance into more affordable monthly payments.

Table of Contents

The specific allocation of the allowance for loan losses on a TDR is determined by either discounting the modified cash flows at the original effective rate of the loan before modification or is based on the underlying collateral value less costs to sell, if repayment of the loan is collateral-dependent. If the resulting amount is less than the recorded book value, the Bank either establishes a valuation allowance (i.e. specific reserve) as a component of the allowance for loan losses or charges off the impaired balance if it determines that such amount is a confirmed loss. This method is used consistently for all segments of the portfolio. The allowance for loan losses also includes an allowance based on a loss migration analysis for each loan category on loans that are not individually evaluated for specific impairment. All loans charged-off, including TDRs charged-off, are factored into this calculation by portfolio segment.

TDRs that were modified during the period are as follows:


	TDR Modifications

1 Bifurcate: Refers to an “A/B” restructure separated into two notes, charging off the entire B portion of the note.

2 Other: Change of terms from bankruptcy court

3 HAMP: Home Affordable Modification Program

4 Deferral: Refers to the deferral of principal

TDRs are classified as being in default on a case-by-case basis when they fail to be in compliance with the modified terms. There was no TDR default activity for three months ending March 31, 2015, and March 31, 2014, that were restructured within the 12 month period prior to default.

Note 7 – Borrowings

The following table is a summary of borrowings as of March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014. Junior subordinated debentures are discussed in detail in Note 8:


	March 31, 2015		December 31, 2014
Securities sold under repurchase agreements	$	26,513	$	21,036
FHLBC advances		30,000		45,000

Subordinated debt		45,000		45,000
Notes payable and other borrowings		500		500
	$	160,391	$	169,914

The Company enters into deposit sweep transactions where the transaction amounts are secured by pledged securities. These transactions consistently mature within 1 to 90 days from the transaction date and are governed by sweep repurchase agreements. All sweep repurchase agreements are treated as financings secured by U.S. government agencies and collateralized mortgage-backed securities and have a carrying amount of $26.5 million at March 31, 2015, and $21.0 million at December 31, 2014. The fair value of the pledged collateral was $43.4 million at March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014. At March 31, 2015, there were no customers with secured balances exceeding 10% of stockholders’ equity.

The Company’s borrowings at the FHLBC require the Bank to be a member and invest in the stock of the FHLBC. Total borrowings are generally limited to the lower of 35% of total assets or 60% of the book value of certain mortgage loans. As of March 31, 2015, the Bank had taken an advance of $30.0 million on the FHLBC stock valued at $4.3 million, collateralized securities with a fair value of $74.1 million and loans with a principal balance of $46.8 million, which carry a combined collateral value of $143.4 million. The Company has excess collateral of $112.1 million available to secure borrowings. At December 31, 2014, the Bank had an advance of $45.0 million on FBLBC stock valued at $4.3 million.

One of the Company’s most significant borrowing relationships continued to be the $45.5 million credit facility with a correspondent bank. That credit began in January 2008 and was originally composed of a $30.5 million senior debt facility, which included $500,000 in term debt, and $45.0 million of subordinated debt. The subordinated debt and the term debt portion of the senior debt facility mature on March 31, 2018. The interest rate on the senior debt facility resets quarterly and at the Company’s option, is based on, either the lender’s prime rate or three-month LIBOR plus 90 basis points. The interest rate on the subordinated debt resets quarterly, and is equal to three-month LIBOR plus 150 basis points. The Company had no principal outstanding balance on the senior line of credit portion of the senior debt facility when it matured and was terminated. The Company had $500,000 in principal outstanding in term debt and $45.0 million in principal outstanding in subordinated debt at the end of both March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014. The term debt is secured by all of the outstanding capital stock of the Bank. The Company has made all required interest payments on the outstanding principal balance on a timely basis.

The credit facility agreement contains usual and customary provisions regarding acceleration of the senior debt upon the occurrence of an event of default by the Company under the senior debt agreement. The senior debt agreement also contains certain customary representations and warranties, and financial covenants. At March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014, the Company was in compliance with all covenants contained within the credit agreement. The agreement provides that noncompliance is an event of default and as the result of the Company’s failure to comply with a financial covenant, the lender may (i) terminate all commitments to extend further credit, (ii) increase the interest rate on the revolving line of the term debt by 200 basis points, (iii) declare the senior debt immediately due and payable and (iv) exercise all of its rights and remedies at law, in equity and/or pursuant to any or all collateral documents, including foreclosing on the collateral. The total outstanding principal of the senior debt is the $500,000 in term debt. Because the subordinated debt is treated as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes, the senior debt agreement does not provide the lender with any rights of acceleration or other remedies with regard to the subordinated debt upon an event of default caused by the Company’s failure to comply with a financial covenant.

Note 8 – Junior Subordinated Debentures

The Company completed the sale of $27.5 million of cumulative trust preferred securities by its unconsolidated subsidiary, Old Second Capital Trust I in June 2003. An additional $4.1 million of cumulative trust preferred securities were sold in July 2003. The trust preferred securities may remain outstanding for a 30-year term but, subject to regulatory approval, can be called in whole or in part by the Company after June 30, 2008. When not in deferral, distributions on the securities are payable quarterly at an annual rate of 7.80%. The Company issued a new $32.6 million subordinated debenture to Old Second Capital Trust I in return for the aggregate net proceeds of this trust preferred offering. The interest rate and payment frequency on the debenture are equivalent to the cash distribution basis on the trust preferred securities.

Table of Contents

The Company issued an additional $25.0 million of cumulative trust preferred securities through a private placement completed by an additional, unconsolidated subsidiary, Old Second Capital Trust II, in April 2007. These trust preferred securities also mature in 30 years, but subject to the aforementioned regulatory approval, can be called in whole or in part on a quarterly basis commencing June 15, 2017. The quarterly cash distributions on the securities are fixed at 6.77% through June 15, 2017, and float at 150 basis points over three-month LIBOR thereafter. The Company issued a new $25.8 million subordinated debenture to the Old Second Capital Trust II in return for the aggregate net proceeds of this trust preferred offering. The interest rate and payment frequency on the debenture are equivalent to the cash distribution basis on the trust preferred securities.

Both of the debentures issued by the Company are disclosed on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as junior subordinated debentures and the related interest expense for each issuance is included in the Consolidated Statements of Income. As of March 31, 2015, the Company is current on the payments due on these securities.

Note 9 – Equity Compensation Plans

There are stock-based awards outstanding under the Company’s 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan”) and the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan,” and together with the 2008 Plan, the “Plans”). The 2014 Plan was approved at the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders. Following approval of the 2014 Plan, no further awards will be granted under the 2008 Plan or any other Company equity compensation plan. A maximum of 375,000 shares may be issued under the 2014 Plan. The Plan authorizes the granting of qualified stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and stock appreciation rights. Awards may be granted to selected directors and officers or employees under the 2014 Plan at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. As of March 31, 2015, 122,500 shares remained available for issuance under the 2014 Plan.

Total compensation cost that has been charged for the plans was $177,000 in the first three months of 2015.

There were no stock options granted in the first quarter of 2015 or 2014. All stock options are granted for a term of ten years. There were no stock options exercised during the first quarter of 2015 or 2014. There is no unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options as all stock options of the Company’s common stock have vested.

A summary of stock option activity in the Plans for the three months ending March 31, 2015, is as follows:


				Weighted-
		Weighted		Average
		Average		Remaining
		Exercise		Contractual	Aggregate
	Shares	Price		Term (years)	Intrinsic Value

Beginning outstanding	229,000	$	28.28
Canceled	-		-
Expired	-		-
Ending outstanding	229,000	$	28.28	1.9	$	-

Exercisable at end of period	229,000	$	28.28	1.9	$	-

Generally, restricted stock and restricted stock units granted under the Plans vest three years from the grant date, but the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors has discretionary authority to change some terms including the amount of time until the vest date.

Awards under the 2008 Plan will become fully vested upon a merger or change in control of the Company. Under the 2014 Plan, upon a change in control of the Company, if (i) the 2014 Plan is not an obligation of the successor entity following the change in control, or (ii) the 2014 Plan is an obligation of the successor entity following the change in control and the participant incurs an involuntary termination, then the stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards and cash incentive awards under the 2014 Plan will become fully exercisable and vested. Performance-based awards generally will vest based upon the level of achievement of the applicable performance measures through the change in control.

The Company granted restricted stock under its equity compensation plans beginning in 2005 and it began granting restricted stock units in February 2009. Restricted stock awards under the Plans generally entitle holders to voting and dividend rights upon grant and are subject to forfeiture until certain restrictions have lapsed including employment for a specific period. Restricted stock units under the Plans are also subject to forfeiture until certain restrictions have lapsed including employment for a specific period, and generally entitle holders to receive dividend equivalents during the restricted period but do not entitle holders to voting rights until the restricted period ends and shares are transferred in connection with the units.

Table of Contents

There were 101,500 restricted awards issued under the Plans during the three months ending March 31, 2015. There were no restricted awards issued during the three months ending March 31, 2014. Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period of the restricted award based on the market value of the award on the issue date.

A summary of changes in the Company’s unvested restricted awards for the three months ending March 31, 2015, is as follows:


	March 31, 2015
		Weighted
	Restricted	Average
	Stock Shares	Grant Date
	and Units	Fair Value
Nonvested at January 1	325,000	$	4.15

Vested	(50,000)		3.90
Forfeited	(13,500)		4.25
Nonvested at March 31	363,000	$	4.53

Total unrecognized compensation cost of restricted awards was $648,000 as of March 31, 2015, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.28 years. Total unrecognized compensation cost of restricted awards was $303,000 as of March 31, 2014, which was expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.99 years.

Table of Contents

The above earnings per share calculation did not include a warrant for 815,339 shares of common stock that was outstanding as of March 31, 2015, and March 31, 2014, because the warrant was anti-dilutive. Of note, the warrant was sold at auction by the Treasury in June 2013 to a third party investor.

The Company completed the redemption of 25,669 shares of its Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B (the “Series B Stock”) in the second quarter of 2014. As previously disclosed, the Company completed a public offering of 15,525,000 shares of common stock in April of 2014. Net proceeds of over $64.0 million were used to pay the accrued but unpaid interest on the Company’s trust preferred securities or junior subordinated debentures discussed in Note 8, the accumulated but unpaid dividends on the Series B Stock and to complete this redemption of the Series B Stock. The amount remaining after the completion of these transactions was retained at the Company for use in addressing general corporate matters. The redemption price for such Series B Stock was 94.75% of the liquidation value of the shares and the holders of the redeemed shares agreed to forebear payment of dividends due and waived any rights to such dividend upon redemption. The Company redeemed all shares of Series B Stock held by directors of the Company on the same terms.

On December 30, 2014, the Company provided notice that it was redeeming approximately one-third of the remaining issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Series B Stock. The effective date for the redemption was January 31, 2015, and the redemption price was the stated liquidation value of $1,000 per share, together with any accrued and unpaid dividends accumulated to, but excluding, the redemption date. As of December 30, 2014, there were 47,331 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock outstanding, and redeeming one-third of the Series B Preferred Stock resulted in the redemption of 15,778 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The redemption was successfully completed in the first quarter. As of March 31, 2015, 31,553 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock remained outstanding.

Note 11 – Regulatory & Capital Matters

The Bank is subject to the risk-based capital regulatory guidelines, which include the methodology for calculating the risk-weighted Bank assets, developed by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) and the other bank regulatory agencies. In connection with the current economic environment, the Bank’s current level of nonperforming assets and the risk-based capital guidelines, the Bank’s board of directors has determined that the Bank should maintain a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio at or above eight percent (8%) and a total risk-based capital ratio at or above twelve percent (12%). At March 31, 2015, the Bank exceeds those thresholds.

At March 31, 2015, the Bank’s Tier 1 capital leverage ratio was 12.15%, up 13 basis points from December 31, 2014, and well above the 8.00% objective. The Bank’s total capital ratio was 18.18%, down 55 basis points from December 31, 2014, and also well above the objective of 12.00%.

On July 22, 2011, the Company entered into a Written Agreement with the Reserve Bank designed to maintain the financial soundness of the Company. Pursuant to the Written Agreement, the Company took certain actions and operated in compliance with the Written Agreement’s provisions during its term. On January 17, 2014, the Reserve Bank terminated the Written Agreement.

Bank holding companies are required to maintain minimum levels of capital in accordance with capital guidelines implemented by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The general bank and holding company capital adequacy guidelines are shown in the accompanying table, as are the capital ratios of the Company and the Bank, as of March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014.

The Company completed the redemption of certain of its Series B Fixed Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock (the “Series B Stock”) in the second quarter of 2014 and the first quarter of 2015. The Company completed a public offering of common stock in April of 2014. Net proceeds of over $64.0 million were used to pay the accrued but unpaid interest on trust preferred securities, the accumulated but unpaid dividends on the Series B Stock and to complete this redemption. All ratios for March 31, 2015, reflect these changes in the Company’s capital.

At March 31, 2015, the Company, on a consolidated basis, exceeded the minimum thresholds to be considered “adequately capitalized” under current regulatory defined capital ratios. For all periods prior to 2015, all capital ratios displayed were calculated without giving effect to the final Basel III capital rules.

1 The Bank exceeded the general minimum regulatory requirements to be considered “well capitalized”.

The Company’s credit facility with a correspondent bank includes $45.0 million in subordinated debt. That debt obligation qualifies at 60% of the original amount for Tier 2 regulatory capital at March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014. In addition, the trust preferred securities continue to qualify as Tier 1 regulatory capital, and the Company treats the maximum amount of this security type allowable under regulatory guidelines as Tier 1 capital. At March 31, 2015 $49.5 million and $7.1 million of the trust preferred proceeds qualified as Tier 1 regulatory capital and Tier 2 regulatory capital, respectively. All $56.6 million of the trust preferred proceeds qualified as Tier 1 regulatory capital as of December 31, 2014. All of the Series B Stock qualified as Tier 1 regulatory capital as of March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014.

Dividend Restrictions

In addition to the above requirements, banking regulations and capital guidelines generally limit the amount of dividends that may be paid by a bank without prior regulatory approval. Under these regulations, the amount of dividends that may be paid in any calendar year is limited to the current year’s profits, combined with the retained profit of the previous two years, subject to the capital requirements described above. Pursuant to the Basel III rules that came into effect January 1, 2015, the Bank must keep a buffer of 0.625% for 2016, 1.25% for 2017, 1.875% for 2018, and 2.5% for 2019 and thereafter of Common Equity Tier 1 minimum requirement in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions. The Bank has the ability and the authority to pay dividends to the Company to pay debt and to meet preferred dividend requirements.

As discussed in Note 8, as of March 31, 2015, the Company had $58.4 million of junior subordinated debentures held by two statutory business trusts that it controls. The Company has the right to defer interest payments on the debentures for a period of up to 20 consecutive quarters, and elected to begin such a deferral in August 2010. However, all deferred interest must be paid before the Company may pay dividends on its common stock. In the second quarter of 2014, the Company terminated the deferral period and paid all accumulated and unpaid interest on the junior subordinated debentures which totaled $19.7 million. The Company is currently paying interest as it comes due.

Furthermore, as with the debentures discussed above, the Company is prohibited from paying dividends on its common stock unless it has fully paid all deferred dividends on the Series B Stock. On April 15, 2014, the Company declared a dividend of approximately $15.8 million on its Series B Stock to stockholders of record on May 1, 2014. Series B Stock dividends of $10.3 million

Table of Contents

were paid on May 15, 2014. The Company is currently paying dividends as they come due and $710,000 was paid on February 15, 2015 on the remaining shares outstanding at that date and is current with the Series B Stock dividends.

On April 28, 2014, the Company redeemed 25,669 shares of the Series B Stock from certain holders, which included certain of the Company’s directors, at a redemption price of 94.75% of the per share liquidation value, or $947.50 per share, for a total price of approximately $24.3 million. The Company paid $22.9 million to a large private investor and an additional $1.4 million to Company directors for these purchases. The holders of such shares waived their rights to any dividends on the Series B Stock, and such holders did not receive any part of the declared dividend on the Series B Stock. In May, the Company paid $10.3 million in Series B Stock dividends. In the second quarter, the Company also recognized benefit from $5.4 million in net income available to common stockholders reflecting both reversal of dividends previously accrued as well as dividends accumulated but not accrued by the Company and waived by holders upon redemption. As of December 31, 2014, there were 47,331 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock outstanding, and redeemed approximately one-third of the Series B Preferred Stock in the first quarter of 2015 resulted in the redemption of 15,778 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The redemption was successfully completed in the quarter. As of March 31, 2015, 31,553 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding.

Further detail on the junior subordinated debentures, the Series B Stock and the deferral of interest and dividends thereon is described in Notes 8 and 15.

Note 12 – Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy established by the Company also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are:

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

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

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

Transfers between levels are deemed to have occurred at the end of the reporting period. For the quarter ended March 31, 2015, there was a transfer of $24.9 million from Level 3 to Level 2 in asset-backed securities. For the quarter ended March 31 2014, there were no significant transfers between levels.

The majority of securities (available-for-sale and held-to-maturity) are valued by external pricing services or dealer market participants and are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Both market and income valuation approaches are utilized. Quarterly, the Company evaluates the methodologies used by the external pricing services or dealer market participants to develop the fair values to determine whether the results of the valuations are representative of an exit price in the Company’s principal markets and an appropriate representation of fair value. The Company uses the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value:

Government-sponsored agency debt securities are primarily priced using available market information through processes such as benchmark curves, market valuations of like securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing.

Other government-sponsored agency securities, MBS and some of the actively traded real estate mortgage investment conduits and collateralized mortgage obligations are priced using available market information including benchmark yields, prepayment speeds, spreads, volatility of similar securities and trade date.

State and political subdivisions are largely grouped by characteristics (e.g., geographical data and source of revenue in trade dissemination systems). Because some securities are not traded daily and due to other grouping limitations, active market quotes are often obtained using benchmarking for like securities.

From December 31, 2013, to December 31, 2014, the Company utilized pricing data from a nationally recognized valuation firm providing specialized securities valuation services for auction rate asset-backed securities. At March 31, 2015, these securities are priced using market spreads, cash flows, prepayment speeds, and loss analytics. Therefore, the valuations of auction rate asset-backed securities are considered Level 2 valuations.

During the third quarter of 2014, asset-backed collateralized loan obligations were acquired and priced using data from a pricing matrix support by our bond accounting service provider and are therefore considered Level 2 valuations.

Residential mortgage loans eligible for sale in the secondary market are carried at fair market value. The fair value of loans held-for-sale is determined using quoted secondary market prices.

Lending related commitments to fund certain residential mortgage loans, e.g. residential mortgage loans with locked interest rates to be sold in the secondary market and forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans to third party investors as well as forward commitments for future delivery of MBS are considered derivatives. Fair values are estimated based on observable changes in mortgage interest rates including prices for MBS from the date of the commitment and do not typically involve significant judgments by management.

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated net servicing income. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income to derive the resultant value. The Company is able to compare the valuation model inputs, such as the discount rate, prepayment speeds, weighted average delinquency and foreclosure/bankruptcy rates to widely available published industry data for reasonableness.

Interest rate swap positions, both assets and liabilities, are based on valuation pricing models using an income approach reflecting readily observable market parameters such as interest rate yield curves.

Both the credit valuation reserve on current interest rate swap positions and on receivables related to unwound customer interest rate swap positions were determined based upon management’s estimate of the amount of credit risk exposure, including by available collateral protection and/or by utilizing an estimate related to a probability of default as indicated in the Bank credit policy. Such adjustments would result in a Level 3 classification.

The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is essentially based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to reflect differences between the available comparable sales and income data. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Nonrecurring adjustments to certain commercial and residential real estate properties classified as OREO are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell. Fair values are based on third party appraisals of the property, resulting in a Level 3 classification. In cases where the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, less costs to sell, an impairment loss is recognized.

The $118,000 on the state and political subdivisions line at March 31, 2015, under Level 3 represents a security from a small, local municipality. Given the small dollar amount and size of the municipality involved, this is categorized as Level 3 based on the payment stream received by the Company from the municipality. That payment stream is otherwise an unobservable input.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis:

The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain other assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. These assets consist of impaired loans and OREO. For assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014, respectively, the following tables provide the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each valuation and the carrying value of the related assets:


	March 31, 2015
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Impaired loans1	$	-	$	-	$	4,776	$	4,776

1 Represents carrying value and related write-downs of loans for which adjustments are substantially based on the fair value of the impaired loan had a carrying amount of $6.6 million, with a valuation allowance of $1.8 million, resulting in an increase of specific allocations within the allowance for loan losses of $1.5 million for the three months ending March 31, 2015.

2 OREO is measured at the lower of carrying or fair value less costs to sell, and had a net carrying amount of $35.5 million, which is made up of the outstanding balance of $56.8 million, net of a valuation allowance of $19.5 million and participations of $1.8 million, at March 31, 2015.

1 Represents carrying value and related write-downs of loans for which adjustments are substantially based on the appraised value of collateral for collateral-dependent loans, had a carrying amount of $842,000, with a valuation allowance of $278,000, resulting in a decrease of specific allocations within the provision for loan losses of $2.1 million for the year ending December 31, 2014.

2 OREO is measured at the lower of carrying or fair value less costs to sell, and had a net carrying amount of $32.0 million, which is made up of the outstanding balance of $53.0 million, net of a valuation allowance of $19.2 million and participations of $1.8 million, at December 31, 2014.

The Company also has assets that under certain conditions are subject to measurement at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets include OREO and impaired loans. The Company has estimated the fair values of these assets based primarily on Level 3 inputs. OREO and impaired loans are generally valued using the fair value of collateral provided by third party appraisals. These valuations include assumptions related to cash flow projections, discount rates, and recent comparable sales. The numerical range of unobservable inputs for these valuation assumptions are not meaningful.

Note 13 – Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk and Derivative Transactions

To meet the financing needs of its customers, the Bank, as a subsidiary of the Company, is a party to various financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business. These off-balance-sheet financial instruments include commitments to originate and sell loans as well as financial standby, performance standby and commercial letters of credit. The instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. The Bank’s exposure to credit loss for loan commitments and letters of credit is represented by the dollar amount of those instruments. Management generally uses the same credit policies and collateral requirements in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Interest Rate Swaps

The Bank also has interest rate derivative positions to assist with risk management that are not designated as hedging instruments. These derivative positions relate to transactions in which the Bank enters an interest rate swap with a client while at the same time entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with another financial institution. Due to financial covenant violations relating to nonperforming loans, the Bank had $1.3 million in investment securities pledged to support interest rate swap activity with two correspondent financial institutions at March 31, 2015. The Bank had $3.0 million in investment securities pledged to support interest rate swap activity with three correspondent financial institutions at December 31, 2014.

In connection with each transaction, the Bank agreed to pay interest to the client on a notional amount at a variable interest rate and receive interest from the client on the same notional amount at a fixed interest rate. At the same time, the Bank agreed to pay another financial institution the same fixed interest rate on the same notional amount and receive the same variable interest rate on the same notional amount. The transaction allows the client to convert a variable rate loan to a fixed rate loan and is part of the Company’s interest rate risk management strategy. Because the Bank acts as an intermediary for the client, changes in the fair value of the underlying derivative contracts offset each other and do not generally affect the results of operations. Fair value measurements include an assessment of credit risk related to the client’s ability to perform on their contract position, however, and valuation estimates related to that exposure are discussed in Note 12 above. At March 31, 2015, the notional amount of non-hedging interest rate swaps was $13.1 million with a weighted average maturity of 2.9 years. At December 31, 2014, the notional amount of non-hedging interest rate swaps was $16.3 million with a weighted average maturity of 2.7 years. The Bank offsets derivative assets and liabilities that are subject to a master netting arrangement.

The Bank also grants mortgage loan interest rate lock commitments to borrowers, subject to normal loan underwriting standards. The interest rate risk associated with these loan interest rate lock commitments is managed with contracts for future deliveries of loans as well as selling forward mortgage-backed securities contracts. Loan interest rate lock commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Commitments to originate residential mortgage loans held-for-sale and forward commitments to sell residential mortgage loans or forward MBS contracts are considered derivative instruments and changes in the fair value are recorded to mortgage banking revenue. Fair values are estimated based on observable changes in mortgage interest rates including mortgage-backed securities prices from the date of the commitment.

The following table presents derivatives not designated as hedging instruments as of March 31, 2015, and periodic changes in the values of the interest rate swaps are reported in other noninterest income. Periodic changes in the value of the forward contracts related to mortgage loan origination are reported in the net gain on sales of mortgage loans.

The Bank also issues letters of credit, which are conditional commitments that guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved and collateral obtained in issuing letters of credit are essentially the same as that involved in extending loan commitments to our customers. In addition to customer related commitments, the Company is responsible for letters of credit commitments that relate to properties held in OREO. The following table represents the Company’s contractual commitments due to letters of credit as of March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014.

Note 14 – Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair values approximate carrying amount for all items except those described in the following table. Investment security fair values are based upon market prices or dealer quotes, and if no such information is available, on the rate and term of the security. The carrying value of FHLBC stock approximates fair value as the stock is nonmarketable and can only be sold to the FHLBC or another member institution at par. During the years ended December 31, 2014, and 2013, the Company participated in multiple redemptions with the FHLBC and, using the redemption values as the carrying value, FHLBC stock is carried at a Level 2 fair value since December 31, 2012. The Company had redemptions of $1.2 million in the year 2014. Of note, the Company redeemed $788,000 in April of 2015. Fair values of loans were estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics, such as type and fixed or variable interest rate terms. Cash flows were discounted using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar ratings and for similar maturities. The fair value of time deposits is estimated using discounted future cash flows at current rates offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The fair values of borrowings were estimated based on interest rates available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. The fair value of off balance sheet volume is not considered material.

The carrying amount and estimated fair values of financial instruments were as follows:

Note 15 – Series B Preferred Stock (“Series B Stock”)

The Series B Stock was issued as part of the Treasury’s Troubled Asset Relief Program and Capital Purchase Program ( the “CPP”). The Series B Stock qualifies as Tier 1 capital and pays cumulative dividends on the liquidation preference amount on a quarterly basis at a rate of 5% per annum for the first five years, and 9% per annum thereafter effective in February 2014. Concurrent with issuing the Series B Stock, the Company issued to the Treasury a ten year warrant to purchase 815,339 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $13.43 per share.

Subsequent to the Company’s receipt of the $73.0 million in proceeds from the Treasury in the first quarter of 2009, the Company allocated the proceeds between the Series B Stock and the warrant that was issued. The Company recorded the warrant as equity, and the allocation was based on their relative fair values in accordance with accounting guidance. The fair value was determined for both the Series B Stock and the warrant as part of the allocation process in the amounts of $68.2 million and $4.8 million, respectively.

On August 31, 2010, the Company announced that it would begin deferring quarterly cash dividends on its outstanding Series B Stock. Further, the Company also elected to defer interest payments on certain of its subordinated debentures. However, under the terms of the Series B Stock, if the Company failed to pay dividends for an aggregate of six quarters on the Series B Stock, whether or not consecutive, the holders would have the right to appoint representatives to the Company’s board of directors. As the Company elected to defer dividends for more than six quarters, a new director was appointed by the Treasury to join the board during the fourth quarter of 2012. The terms of the Series B Stock also prevent the Company from paying cash dividends or generally repurchasing its common stock while Series B Stock dividends are in arrears.

The Treasury sold all of the Series B Stock held to third parties, including certain of our directors, in auctions that were completed in the first quarter of 2013. The Treasury also sold the warrant to a third party at a subsequent auction. Upon completion by Treasury of the auction, the Company’s board affirmed the director appointed by Treasury to ongoing board membership, and the Series B director was elected by the holders of the Series B Stock at the Company’s 2013 annual meeting.

As a result of the completed 2013 auctions, the Company’s Board elected to stop accruing the dividend on the Series B Stock in the first quarter of 2013. Previously, the Company had accrued the dividend on the Series B Stock quarterly throughout the deferral period. Given the discount reflected in the results of the auction, the board believed that the Company would likely be able to redeem the Series B Stock at a price less than the face amount of the Series B Stock plus accrued and unpaid dividends. While the Company did not fully accrue the dividend on the Series B Stock in the first quarter of 2013 and did not accrue for it in subsequent quarters, the Company continued to evaluate whether accruing dividends on the Series B Stock was appropriate. In the second quarter of 2014, the Company completed redemption of 25,669 shares of its Series B Stock at a price equal to 94.75% of liquidation value provided that the holders of shares entered into agreements to forebear payment of dividends due and to waive any rights to such dividends upon redemption. Following the redemption, the Company resumed accrual in the second quarter of 2014. The Company currently intends

to declare and pay future dividends on these shares. Payments of $24.3 million resulted in redemption of 25,669 shares of Series B Stock in the second quarter of 2014.

On December 30, 2014, the Company provided notice that it was redeeming approximately one-third of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Series B Stock. The effective date for the redemption was January 31, 2015, and the redemption price was the stated liquidation value of $1,000 per share, together with any accrued and unpaid dividends accumulated to, but excluding, the redemption date. As of December 30, 2014, there were 47,331 shares of the Series B Stock outstanding, and redeeming one-third of the Series B Preferred Stock resulted in the redemption of 15,778 shares of Series B Stock. The redemption was successfully completed in the first quarter. As of March 31, 2015, 31,553 shares of the Series B Stock remain outstanding.

At March 31, 2015, the Company carried $31.6 million of Series B Stock in total stockholders’ equity. The Company carried $47.3 million and $72.9 million of Series B Stock in total stockholders’ equity at December 31, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively.

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

Overview

The Company is a financial services company with its main headquarters located in Aurora, Illinois. The Company is the holding company of Old Second National Bank (the “Bank”), a national banking organization headquartered in Aurora, Illinois that provides commercial and retail banking services, as well as a full complement of trust and wealth management services. The Company has offices located in Cook, Kane, Kendall, DeKalb, DuPage, LaSalle and Will counties in Illinois. The following management’s discussion and analysis presents information concerning our financial condition and the results of operations for the quarter ended as of March 31, 2015, as compared to the quarters ended December 31, 2014, and March 31, 2014. This discussion and analysis is best read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements as well as the financial and statistical data appearing elsewhere in this report and our 2014 Form 10-K.

Our exemplary community banking franchise has emerged from the difficult years following 2008 as an enduring entity, but is challenged daily by market competition, difficulties in our market environments and, on going financial industry as well as regulatory developments. Management believes the Company is positioned for further growth and success. As we look to provide enduring value to our customers and the communities in which we operate, we still find steady but sluggish growth in our local markets similar to information discussed on the issues faced in the national economy. While progress is being made, we see continued uncertainty and a widespread reluctance by individuals and businesses to invest for growth. As the Company’s residential mortgage business experienced strong performance in the first quarter, our other services continued to encounter fierce competition in our chosen communities.

As previously disclosed, James L. Eccher assumed responsibilities as the Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company, effective as of January 1, 2015, while William B. Skoglund retired from the position of Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company on the same date. Mr. Eccher remains as the Chief Executive Officer and President of the Bank. Mr. Skoglund remains the Chairman of the Board of both the Company and the Bank.

Results of Operations

Management has remained vigilant in analyzing loan portfolio quality and making decisions to charge-off loans. First quarter review of the loan portfolio concluded that the reserve for loan and lease loss was adequate and appropriate for estimable losses at March 31, 2015. No loan loss reserve release or provision was recorded in the first quarter of 2015. This compared to a $1.3 million loan loss reserve release for the fourth quarter of 2014 and a $1.0 million loan loss reserve release in first quarter of 2014.

Net income before taxes of $5.4 million in the first quarter of 2015 compares to $4.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2014 and $3.4 million in the first quarter of last year. Last year’s first quarter included lower levels of net interest income, residential mortgage banking revenue and debit card interchange income as well as an overall higher levels of noninterest expense, most notably in amortization of the core deposit intangible now fully amortized. When compared to the fourth quarter of 2014, the first quarter 2015 reflected a lower level of net interest income, especially after last year’s loan loss reserve release. Noninterest income strengthened on higher residential mortgage revenue and nonrecurring items shown in other and described below. Noninterest expense decreased on a linked quarter basis largely on lower expenses related to foreclosed real estate.

In the first quarter of 2015, earnings per share was $0.09 per diluted share on net income available to common shareholders of $2.7 million. Earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $0.06 per diluted share on $1.9 million of net income to common stockholders. All information reflects management actions to redeem outstanding Series B Stock (with resulting benefit in net income to common stockholders) both in second quarter of last year and in the first quarter of 2015. These results compare to $0.04 per diluted share, on net income to common stockholders of $630,000 for the first quarter of 2014. All 2014 and 2015 Series B Stock dividends incorporate an increase in the dividend rate from 5% to 9% in February of 2014.

Net Interest Income

Net interest and dividend income decreased $544,000 from $15.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, to $14.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. Average earning assets for the first quarter of 2015 increased $51.9 million, or 2.9%, from a total of $1.78 billion at March 31, 2014, essentially in loans. Average loans for the first quarter, including loans held for sale, increased $55.0 million when compared to the first quarter of 2014.

Management continues to develop loan pipelines and expects that pipeline volume will generate future loan growth. As loan volume continues at a modest growth pace, management also increased available-for-sale securities in the first quarter of 2015 by $13.8 million or 3.6% over year end 2014. Average loans as a percentage of average total earning assets is essentially unchanged at quarter end compared to year end 2014.

Table of Contents

The net interest margin (tax-equivalent basis), expressed as a percentage of average earning assets, decreased slightly from 3.35% in the fourth quarter of 2014 to 3.26% in the first quarter of 2015. The average tax-equivalent yield on earning assets decreased from 3.83% in the fourth quarter of 2014 to 3.71% in the first quarter of 2015. For the same comparative period, the cost of funds on interest bearing liabilities decreased from 0.65% to 0.63% providing a marginal offset to the decrease in earning asset yield.

Period loan yields are reflective of competitive pressures on new loan yield. Additionally, management continued to see competitive pressure to reduce interest rates on loans retained at renewal.

Management, in order to evaluate and measure performance, uses certain non-GAAP performance measures and ratios. This includes tax-equivalent net interest income (including its individual components) and net interest margin (including its individual components) to total average interest earning assets. Management believes that these measures and ratios provide users of the financial information with a more accurate view of the performance of the interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and of the Company’s operating efficiency for comparison purposes. Other financial holding companies may define or calculate these measures and ratios differently. See the tables and notes below for supplemental data and the corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015, December 31, 2014, and March 31, 2014.

The following tables set forth certain information relating to the Company’s average consolidated balance sheets and reflect the yield on average earning assets and cost of average liabilities for the periods indicated. Dividing the related interest by the average balance of assets or liabilities derives the disclosed rates. Average balances are derived from daily balances. For purposes of discussion, net interest income and net interest income to total earning assets on the following tables have been adjusted to a non-GAAP tax equivalent (“TE”) basis using a marginal rate of 35% to more appropriately compare returns on tax-exempt loans and securities to other earning assets.

Asset Quality

The Company had no loan loss reserve release or provision in the first quarter of 2015. By comparison, the Company recognized a $1.3 million reserve release in the fourth quarter of 2014 and $1.0 million reserve release in the first quarter of 2014. The provision for loan loss creates a reserve for probable and estimable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. On a quarterly basis, management estimates the amount required and records the appropriate provision or release to maintain an adequate reserve for all potential and estimated loan losses.

Nonperforming loans decreased to $23.4 million at March 31, 2015, from $27.1 million at December 31, 2014. The decrease is driven by a small number of specific relationships that migrated to OREO. Net charge-offs totaled $456,000 in the first quarter of 2015 while net charge-offs totaled $805,000 for the first quarter of 2014. The distribution of the Company’s remaining nonperforming loans is included in the following table.

Gross charge-offs for the first quarter of 2015 were $1.3 million compared to $1.4 million for the first quarter of 2014 reflecting our efforts to improve loan quality in improved but still challenging markets. Recoveries were $808,000 and $555,000 for the same time periods, respectively.

Classified loans include nonaccrual, performing troubled debt restructurings and all other loans considered substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by either the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged to secure the loan, if any. These loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and carry the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if deficiencies remain uncorrected.

Classified assets include both classified loans and OREO. Management monitors a ratio of classified assets to the sum of Bank Tier 1 capital and the allowance for loan and lease loss reserve as another measure of overall change in loan related asset quality. Effective January 1, 2015 and for the quarter end ratio calculation, management applied capital rules as announced effective January 1, 2015 also known as the Basel III regulations. This ratio ended at 27.0% for quarter end.

The coverage ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 90.7% at March 31, 2015, up from 79.9% as of December 31, 2014, and 66.0% as of March 31, 2014. Management updated the estimated specific allocations in the first quarter after receiving more recent appraisals of collateral or information on cash flow trends related to the impaired credits. Excluding the specific allocation related to a potential loan sale discussed below, this update resulted in a slightly lower amount required in the reserve for estimable losses on these credits at the end of the first quarter 2015 compared to year end 2014 and sharply lower when compared to period end first quarter 2014. The estimated general risk allocation was also sharply lower when compared March 31, 2014, and slightly lower when compared to December 31, 2014. The third component of the Company’s loan loss reserve analysis reflects management factors applied to loans by type and showed essentially unchanged required reserves when compared to December 31, 2014, and an incremental $620,000 in required reserves when compared to March 31, 2014.

After the end of the first quarter 2015, the Bank entered negotiations to sell several related problem loans in a transaction that would generate charge-off entries as a result of sale terms. The table above reflects specific loan loss reserve allocations as appropriate. Management completed the sale on April 23, 2015, under terms in conformity with those specific allocations. Sale of these loans will also result in improvements to the Bank profile on nonperforming loans and classified loans in April 2015 internal management reporting.

Under an additional transaction on another loan, the Bank received payment on April 24, 2015, in the amount of $504,311 under insurance coverage on property related to a fully charged-off loan with amounts charged-off in excess of this dollar amount received. The insurer made this payment under a court judgement issued in late March of 2015. This payment will be recorded as a recovery in the second quarter of 2015.

After a review of the adequacy of the loan loss reserve at March 31, 2015, management concluded that, for the first quarter of 2015 neither a loan loss provision or a loan loss reserve release were appropriate. When measured as a percentage of loans outstanding, the total allowance for loan losses decreased slightly from 1.9% of total loans as of December 31, 2014, to 1.8% of total loans at March 31, 2015. In management’s judgment, an adequate, allowance for estimated losses has been established for inherent losses at March 31, 2015. However, there can be no assurance that actual losses will not exceed the estimated amounts in the future.

OREO increased to $35.5 million at March 31, 2015, from $32.0 million at December 31, 2014, and decreased from $40.2 million at March 31, 2014. Property additions exceeded property disposals and valuation adjustments to OREO in the three months ended March 31, 2015, most notably a late quarter OREO addition of $2.7 million. The quarterly property additions and improvements were relatively consistent at $4.7 million, $4.8 million and $4.8 million for the first three quarters of 2014 and then dropped to $2.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2014. At the same time, property disposals and valuation adjustments combined to reduce OREO by $6.0 million, $5.8 million, $3.1 million with a sharply higher reduction of 11.5 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2014, June 30, 2014, September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2014, respectively. In the quarter ended March 31, 2015, recorded additions reached $6.1 million and dispositions plus valuation adjustments decreased to $2.6 million, a level seen in only one quarter of 2014.

The OREO valuation reserve was $19.5 million, which was 35.4% of gross OREO at March 31, 2015. The valuation reserve represented 32.6% and 37.5% of gross OREO at March 31, 2014, and December 31, 2014, respectively. In management’s judgment, the property valuation allowance as established presents OREO at current estimates of fair value less estimated costs to sell; however, there can be no assurance that additional losses will not be incurred on disposal or upon update to valuation in the future. Of note, properties valued in total at $2.6 million (approximately 7.2% of the March 31, 2015, total OREO) have been in OREO for five years or more.

As shown above, noninterest income experienced no significant linked quarter improvements in the first quarter except for residential mortgage banking revenue and other income. The Company experienced strong mortgage loan origination results in the quarter with mortgage originations reaching the highest level in the last two years. Robust overall mortgage loan origination volumes, driven by refinancing volume, were up 57% from the fourth quarter. Other income includes a nonrecurring incentive payment of $917,000 from a service provider in a long term mutually productive relationship with Old Second. Other income for the quarter also reflects the death benefit realized on a life insurance policy held by the Bank. Year over year noninterest income increased approximately 11% when the items noted above in 2015 are excluded.

The efficiency ratio shown in the table above is calculated as noninterest expense excluding core deposit intangible amortization and OREO expenses divided by the sum of net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis, total noninterest income less net gains and losses on securities and with a tax equivalent adjustment on the increase in cash surrender value of bank-owned life insurance.

Noninterest expense decreased on a linked quarter basis primarily on lower FDIC expense, as well as reduced debit card interchange, legal and OREO expenses. First quarter 2015 total noninterest expense was down from first quarter 2014. Excluding the benefit from the now fully amortized core deposit intangible asset, noninterest expense was essentially flat.

Income Taxes

The Company recorded a tax expense of $1.9 million on $5.4 million pre-tax income for the first quarter of 2015. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, tax expense was composed of $105,000 in current income tax expense and $1.8 million in deferred income tax expense.

There have been no significant changes in the Company’s ability to utilize the deferred tax assets through March 31, 2015. The Company has no valuation reserve on the deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2015.

On September 12, 2012, the Company and the Bank, as rights agent, entered into the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement and Tax Benefits Preservation Plan (the “Tax Benefits Plan”). The Tax Benefits Plan amended and restated the Rights Agreement, dated September 17, 2002. The purpose of the Tax Benefits Plan is to protect the Company’s deferred tax asset against an unsolicited ownership change, which could significantly limit the Company’s ability to utilize its deferred tax assets. The Tax Benefits Plan was ratified by the Company’s stockholders at the Company’s 2013 annual meeting. In connection with the public offering, that closed in the second quarter of 2014, the Company amended the Tax Benefits Plan on April 3, 2014, to allow two identified investors who were purchasers in the offering to purchase more than 5% of the Company’s common stock.

Financial Condition

Total assets increased $35.7 million, or 1.7%, from December 31, 2014, to $2.10 billion as of March 31, 2015. Loans decreased by $8.3 million, or 0.7%, as management continued to emphasize credit quality under an overarching relationship lending program. At the same time, loan charge-off activity reduced balances, and collateral that previously secured loans moved to OREO. OREO increased $3.5 million , or 10.9% at March 31, 2015, compared to year end 2014. Available-for-sale securities increased by $13.8 million while held-to-maturity securities decreased $2.3 million in the three months ending March 31, 2015.

Loans

Total loans were $1.15 billion as of March 31, 2015, a decrease of $8.3 million from $1.16 billion as of December 31, 2014. The decrease in loans reflects modest growth in real estate commercial lending offset by declines in most other portfolio segments, notably Commercial down 4.1%. Challenging economic circumstances, seasonally reduced demand and an intensely competitive environment served to temper overall loan growth.

The quality of the loan portfolio incorporates not only Company credit decisions but also the economic health of the communities in which the Company operates. The local economies continue to experience the economic headwinds that have been subject of extensive discussion on a state and national level. The uneven and occasionally adverse economic conditions continue to affect the Midwest region in particular and financial markets generally. As the Company is located in a corridor with significant open space and undeveloped real estate, real estate lending (including commercial, residential, and construction) has been and continues to be a sizeable portion of the portfolio. These categories comprised 87.9% of the portfolio as of March 31, 2015, compared to 87.6% of the portfolio as of December 31, 2014. The Company continues to oversee and manage its loan portfolio in accordance with interagency guidance on risk management.

The total investment portfolio reached $656.6 million at March 31, 2015. The available-for-sale (“AFS”) portfolio increased 3.6% during the first quarter to end at $399.3 million. Modest net increases are found in corporate bond and collateralized mortgage obligations holdings, up 6.5% and 7.0% respectively. The 53.3% increase in state and political subdivisions since December 31, 2014, reflects investments in tax anticipation warrants. The Company had no purchase or sale activity in the held-to-maturity portfolio in the first quarter.

Net realized losses totaled $109,000 for the first quarter of 2015. Net unrealized losses on the AFS portfolio before deferred taxes were $5.2 million at March 31, 2015, a decrease of $1.0 million for the quarter.

Total deposits increased $59.7 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2015, to $1.74 billion. Savings, NOW and money market deposit volume increased by $31.5 million. Also during the period, certificates of deposit or time deposits decreased by $3.2 million while noninterest bearing demand increased $31.4 million.

Average balance for interest bearing deposits was $1.30 billion for the first three months of 2015. Average balance for noninterest bearing deposits was $405.9 million in the same period. When compared to the first quarter of 2014, average balances in 2015 reflect lower interest bearing deposit volumes, driven by time deposits and money market accounts, but increased noninterest bearing deposits and slightly higher savings balances. Management believes that reductions in average time deposits reflect maturities of deposits from past higher rate environments. Further, management believes that the increase in transaction account balances at March 31, 2015, reflects customer choice at that date.

One of the Company’s most significant borrowing relationships continued to be the $45.5 million credit facility with a correspondent bank. That credit began in January 2008 and was originally composed of a $30.5 million senior debt facility, which included $500,000 in term debt, and $45.0 million of subordinated debt. The subordinated debt and the term debt portion of the senior debt facility mature on March 31, 2018. The interest rate on the senior debt facility resets quarterly and at the Company’s option, is based on, either the lender’s prime rate or three-month LIBOR plus 90 basis points. The interest rate on the subordinated debt resets quarterly, and is equal to three-month LIBOR plus 150 basis points. The Company had no principal outstanding balance on the senior line of credit portion of the senior debt facility when it matured and was terminated. The Company had $500,000 in principal outstanding in term debt and $45.0 million in principal outstanding in subordinated debt at both March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014. The term debt is secured by all of the outstanding capital stock of the Bank. The Company has made all required interest payments on the outstanding principal amounts on a timely basis.

The Company increased its securities sold under repurchase agreements to $26.5 million at March 31, 2015, from $21.0 million at December 31, 2014. The Company had taken an advance from Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago of $45.0 million at December 31, 2014, and an advance of $30.0 million at March 31, 2014.

The Company is also obligated on $58.4 million of junior subordinated debentures related to the trust preferred securities issued by its two statutory trust subsidiaries, Old Second Capital Trust I and Old Second Capital Trust II. In April 2014, the Company concluded a successful capital raise and used some of the capital raise proceeds to pay interest accrued but previously unpaid on the trust preferred securities. The Company is currently paying interest as it comes due. The Company is current on all payments due on these securities.

Capital

As of March 31, 2015, total stockholders’ equity was $181.8 million, which was a decrease of $12.3 million from $194.2 million as of December 31, 2014. This decrease was directly attributable to the redemption of approximately one-third of the Company’s Series B Stock completed in first quarter of 2015. The Bank is subject to the risk-based capital regulatory guidelines, which include the methodology for calculating the risk-weighting of the Bank’s assets, developed by the OCC and the other bank regulatory agencies.

As previously announced in the third quarter of 2010, the Company elected to defer regularly scheduled interest payments on $58.4 million of junior subordinated debentures related to the trust preferred securities issued by its two statutory trust subsidiaries, Old Second Capital Trust I and Old Second Capital Trust II. Because of the deferral on the subordinated debentures, the trusts deferred regularly scheduled dividends on their trust preferred securities. On April 21, 2014, the Company paid the accumulated and unpaid interest on the trust preferred securities and terminated the deferral period. In the first quarter of 2015, the Company paid $1.1 million for the regularly scheduled payments.

During the fourth quarter 2012, the Treasury announced the continuation of individual auctions of the Series B Stock that was issued through the Capital Purchase Program and the Company was informed that the Series B Stock would be auctioned. Auction transactions were settled in first quarter 2013 reflecting Treasury’s efforts to conclude the CPP. The auctions were successful for the Treasury as all of the Series B Stock held by Treasury was sold to third parties, including certain of our directors. The Company completed redemption of 25,669 shares of its Series B Stock in the second quarter of 2014 using some proceeds from its issuance of 15,525,000 shares of common stock in April of 2014. On December 30, 2014, the Company provided notice that it was redeeming approximately one-third of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). The effective date for the redemption was January 31, 2015, and the redemption price was the stated liquidation value of $1,000 per share, together with any accrued and unpaid dividends accumulated to, but excluding, the redemption date. As of December 30, 2014, there were 47,331 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock outstanding, and redeeming one-third of the Series B Preferred Stock resulted in the redemption of 15,778 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The redemption was successfully completed in the first quarter quarter of 2015. As of March 31, 2015, 31,553 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding.

At December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2014, the Company carried $72.9 million and $47.3 million, respectively of Series B Stock in total stockholders’ equity. Following the successful redemption of Series B Stock discussed above, the Company carried $31.6 million of Series B Stock at March 31, 2015. Pursuant to the terms of the Series B Stock, the dividends paid on the Series B Stock increased from 5% to 9% in February 2014. The Company paid $710,000 on February 15, 2015 on the remaining shares outstanding at that date and is current with the Series B Stock dividends.

Table of Contents

Management has all options to redeem the Series B Stock, which carries a 9.0% dividend rate, under evaluation. The Company will take action to redeem the Series B Stock only when it is effective to do so and after a complete review of long term and short term considerations.

The Company’s non-GAAP tangible common equity to tangible assets and the Tier 1 common equity to risk weighted assets increased to 7.17% and 9.46%, respectively, at March 31, 2015, compared to 7.12% and 6.80%, respectively, at December 31, 2014. The issuance of 15,525,000 common shares net of repurchasing Series B Stock in 2014 and additional Series B stock repurchased in the first quarter of 2015 resulted in a positive impact on the regulatory ratios and the non-GAAP ratios noted above in the quarter ending March 31, 2015. The Company does not anticipate any significant effect to the Bank’s regulatory ratios as the Company does not have any immediate plans to use any of the proceeds to increase Bank capital. All capital ratios and regulatory capital information for 2015 give full effect to the Basel III capital regulations in effect as of January 1, 2015. All other capital ratios and regulatory capital information for other periods reflects the regulatory regulations in effect for the relevant time period.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Liquidity and Market Risk

Liquidity is the Company’s ability to fund operations, to meet depositor withdrawals, to provide for customers’ credit needs, and to meet maturing obligations and existing commitments. The liquidity of the Company principally depends on cash flows from operating activities, investment in and maturity of assets, changes in balances of deposits and borrowings, and its ability to borrow funds. The Company monitors borrowing capacity at correspondent banks as well as the FHLBC and Reserve Bank as part of its liquidity management process as supervised by the Asset and Liability Committee and reviewed by the board of directors.

Net cash inflows from operating activities were $3.4 million during the first three months of 2015, compared with net cash outflows of $4.9 million in the same period in 2014. Proceeds from sales of loans held-for-sale, net of funds used to originate loans held-for-sale, were a source of outflows for the first three months of 2015, compared to inflows in the same period in 2014. Interest paid, net of interest received, combined with changes in other assets and liabilities were a source of outflows for of the first three months of 2015 and 2014. Management of investing and financing activities, as well as market conditions, determines the level and the stability of net interest cash flows. Management’s policy is to mitigate the impact of changes in market interest rates to the extent possible, as part of the balance sheet management process.

Net cash outflows from investing activities were $6.8 million in the first three months of 2015, compared to net cash outflows of $45.5 million in the same period in 2014. In the first three months of 2015, securities transactions accounted for net outflows of $10.3 million, and net principal disbursed on loans accounted for net inflows of $1.7 million. In the first three months of 2014, securities transactions accounted for net outflows of $35.6 million, and net principal received on loans accounted for net outflows of $15.5 million. Proceeds from sales of OREO accounted for $2.1 million and $6.0 million in investing cash inflows for the first three months of 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Net cash inflows from financing activities in the first three months of 2015 were $33.3 million, compared with net cash inflows of $57.8 million in the first three months of 2014. Redemption of 15,778 shares of Series B Stock and dividends paid on Series B Stock accounted for net cash outflows of $16.8 million in the first three months of 2015. Net deposit inflows in the first three months of 2015 were $59.7 million compared to net deposit inflows of $42.2 million in the first three months of 2014. Other short-term borrowings had net cash outflows of $15.0 million and inflows of $15.0 million related to FHLBC repayment in the first three months of 2015 and an FHLBC advance in the first three months of 2014. Changes in securities sold under repurchase agreements accounted for $5.5 million and $652,000 in net inflows, respectively, in the first three months of 2015 and 2014.

Interest Rate Risk

As part of its normal operations, the Company is subject to interest-rate risk on the assets it invests in (primarily loans and securities) and the liabilities it funds with (primarily customer deposits and borrowed funds), as well as its ability to manage such risk. Fluctuations in interest rates may result in changes in the fair market values of the Company’s financial instruments, cash flows, and net interest income. Like most financial institutions, the Company has an exposure to changes in both short-term and long-term interest rates.

Interest rates in early 2015 have continued at historically low levels. Market expectations about interest rate increases later 2015 are varied given uncertain domestic and international economic conditions. The Company manages interest rate risk within guidelines established by policy which limits the amount of rate exposure. In practice, interest rate risk exposure is maintained well within those guidelines and does not pose a material risk to the future earnings of the Company.

The Company manages various market risks in its normal course of operations, including credit, liquidity, and interest-rate risk. Other types of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange risk and commodity price risk, do not arise in the normal course of the Company’s business activities and operations. In addition, since the Company does not hold a trading portfolio, it is not exposed to significant market risk from trading activities. The Company’s interest rate risk exposures from March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014, are outlined in the table below.

The Company’s net income can be significantly influenced by a variety of external factors, including: overall economic conditions, policies and actions of regulatory authorities, the amounts of and rates at which assets and liabilities reprice, variances in prepayment of loans and securities other than those that are assumed, early withdrawal of deposits, exercise of call options on borrowings or securities, competition, a general rise or decline in interest rates, changes in the slope of the yield-curve, changes in historical relationships between indices (such as LIBOR and prime), and balance sheet growth or contraction. The Company’s Asset and Liability Committee seeks to manage interest rate risk under a variety of rate environments by structuring the Company’s balance sheet and off-balance sheet positions, which includes interest rate swap derivatives as discussed in Note 13 of the financial statements included in this quarterly report. The Company monitors and manages this risk within approved policy limits.

Table of Contents

The Company utilizes simulation analysis to quantify the impact of various rate scenarios on net interest income. Specific cash flows, repricing characteristics, and embedded options of the assets and liabilities held by the Company are incorporated into the simulation model. Earnings at risk is calculated by comparing the net interest income of a stable interest rate environment to the net interest income of different interest rate environments to determine the percentage change. Significant declines in interest rates that occurred during the first half of 2012 have made it impossible to calculate valid interest rate scenarios for rate declines of 1.0% or more. Compared to December 31, 2014, the Company had more earnings gains (in both dollars and percentage) if interest rates should rise. Largely due to additions to the securities portfolio that benefit from rising interest rates, along with increases in low cost deposits, the Company has marginally increased the amount of earnings gains if interest rates were to rise. Management considers the current level of interest rate risk to be low, but intends to continue closely monitoring changes in that risk in case corrective actions might be needed in the future. Federal Funds rates and the Bank's prime rate were stable at 0.25% and 3.25%, respectively.

The following table summarizes the effect on annual income before income taxes based upon an immediate increase or decrease in interest rates of 0.5%, 1%, and 2% assuming no change in the slope of the yield curve. The -2% and -1% sections of the table do not show model changes for those magnitudes of decrease due to the low interest rate environment over the relevant time periods.

The amounts and assumptions used in the simulation model should not be viewed as indicative of expected actual results. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies. The above results do not take into account any management action to mitigate potential risk.
