Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. is a financial holding company incorporated in August 1991 in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly owned bank and nonbank subsidiaries are collectively referred to herein as "Mid Penn" or the "Corporation." On December 31, 1991, Mid Penn acquired, as part of the holding company formation, all of the outstanding common stock of Mid Penn Bank (the "Bank"), and the Bank became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mid Penn. During the year ended December 31, 2020, Mid Penn established three nonbank subsidiaries, including MPB Financial Services, LLC, under which two additional nonbank subsidiaries have been established: (i) MPB Wealth Management, LLC, created to expand the wealth management function and services of the Corporation, and (ii) MPB Risk Services, LLC, created to fulfill the insurance needs of both existing and potential customers of the Corporation. During the year ended December 31, 2021, Mid Penn formed MPB Launchpad Fund I, LLC to hold certain financial holding company eligible investments. As of December 31, 2022, the accounts and activities of these nonbank subsidiaries were not material to warrant separate disclosure or segment reporting. Mid Penn’s primary business is to supervise and coordinate the business of the Bank and its nonbank subsidiaries, and to provide them with the capital and resources to fulfill their respective missions. Mid Penn’s consolidated financial condition and results of operations consist almost entirely of that of the Bank, which is managed as a single business segment. At December 31, 2022, Mid Penn had total consolidated assets of $4.5 billion with total deposits of $3.8 billion and total shareholders’ equity of $512.1 million. The holding company and its nonbank subsidiaries currently do not own or lease any real property. The Bank owns or leases the banking offices as identified in Part I, Item 2. ### Mid Penn Bank Mid Penn Bank was organized in 1868 under a predecessor name, Millersburg Bank, and became a state-chartered bank in 1931. Millersburg Bank obtained trust powers in 1935, at which time its name was changed to Millersburg Trust Company. In 1971, Millersburg Trust Company adopted the name "Mid Penn Bank". Mid Penn’s legal headquarters are located at 2407 Park Drive, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17110 and the Bank’s legal headquarters are located at 349 Union Street, Millersburg, Pennsylvania 17061. On March 1, 2015, in connection with the acquisition of Phoenix Bancorp, Inc. ("Phoenix") by Mid Penn, Phoenix’s wholly-owned banking subsidiary, Miners Bank, was merged with and into the Bank, with the Bank being the surviving charter. On January 8, 2018, Mid Penn completed its acquisition of The Scottdale Bank and Trust Company ("Scottdale") through the merger of Scottdale with and into the Bank (the "Scottdale Merger"). The Scottdale Merger resulted in the addition of five branches in Western Pennsylvania operating as "Scottdale Bank & Trust, a Division of Mid Penn Bank". On July 31, 2018, Mid Penn completed its acquisition of First Priority Financial Corp. ("First Priority") pursuant to which First Priority was merged with and into Mid Penn (the "First Priority Merger"), with Mid Penn being the surviving corporation in the First Priority Merger. As part of this acquisition, First Priority’s banking subsidiary, First Priority Bank, was merged with and into the Bank. The First Priority Merger resulted in the addition of eight offices in Southeastern Pennsylvania operating as "First Priority Bank, a Division of Mid Penn Bank". On November 30, 2021, Mid Penn completed its acquisition of Riverview Financial Corporation ("Riverview"), the holding company for Riverview Bank, through the merger of Riverview with and into Mid Penn (the "Riverview Acquisition"). In connection with the Riverview Acquisition, Riverview Bank was merged with and into the Bank, with the Bank as the surviving institution. The Riverview merger resulted in the addition of twenty-three community banking offices and three limited purpose offices across Western Pennsylvania. On December 20, 2022, Mid Penn entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger ("Merger Agreement") with Brunswick Bancorp ("Brunswick") pursuant to which Brunswick will merge with and into Mid Penn ("Merger"), with Mid Penn being the surviving corporation in the Merger. Upon consummation of the Merger, Brunswick Bank and Trust Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brunswick, will be merged with and into the Bank ("Bank Merger"), with Mid Penn Bank being the surviving bank in the Bank Merger. The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by the boards of directors of Mid Penn and Brunswick. See "Form 8-K filed on December 20, 2022," for additional details. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, shareholders of Brunswick will have the right to elect to receive, subject to adjustment and proration as described in the Merger Agreement, either (A) 0.598 shares of Mid Penn common stock or (B) Eighteen Dollars ($18.00) for each share of Brunswick common stock they own. It is expected that the Merger will be completed in the second quarter of 2023. On December 30, 2022, Mid Penn purchased the assets of Managing Partners, Inc. ("MPI Acquisition") in a business combination. Managing Partners, Inc. was an independent insurance agency that serviced the Central Pennsylvania area. Additional information related to the recent acquisitions can be found in "Note 2 - Business Combinations", to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Part II, Item of this report. As of December 31, 2022, the Bank had 43 full-service retail banking locations in the Pennsylvania counties of Berks, Blair, Bucks, Centre, Chester, Clearfield, Cumberland, Dauphin, Fayette, Huntingdon, Lancaster, Lehigh, Luzerne, Lycoming, Montgomery, Northumberland, Perry, Schuylkill and Westmoreland. Mid Penn has no branches or offices located outside of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. On December 7, 2021, in connection with the Riverview Acquisition, and as part of a Retail Network Optimization Plan adopted by Mid Penn Bank’s Board of Directors, the Corporation announced its intention to close sixteen of its retail locations throughout its expanded footprint. The branch closures occurred on or about March 4, 2022. As a result of this announcement, and in accordance with GAAP, Mid Penn had reclassified the assets associated with these retail locations to held for sale as of December 31, 2021. Mid Penn’s primary business consists of attracting deposits and loans from the Bank’s network of community banking offices. The Bank engages in full-service commercial banking and trust business, making available to the community a wide range of financial services, including, but not limited to, mortgage and home equity loans, secured and unsecured commercial and consumer loans, lines of credit, construction financing, farm loans, community development and local government loans and various types of time and demand deposits. The Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") supervise the Bank. Deposits of the Bank are insured by the FDIC’s Deposit Insurance Fund (the "DIF") to the maximum extent provided by law. In addition, the Bank provides a full range of trust and retail investment services. The Bank also offers other services such as online banking, telephone banking, cash management services, automated teller services and safe deposit boxes. #### Business Strategy The Bank provides services to commercial businesses and real estate investors, consumers, nonprofit organizations, and municipalities through its 43 full-service retail banking properties, one loan production office, one wealth management office, two corporate administrations office, and one operations facility, which are all based in Pennsylvania. Mid Penn’s primary markets reflect a diversified manufacturing and services base across nineteen Pennsylvania counties, including having several offices in and around the state capital region of Harrisburg. The Bank emphasizes developing long-term customer relationships, maintaining high quality service, and providing prompt responses to customer needs. Mid Penn believes that local relationship building and its prudent approach to lending are important factors in the success and growth of Mid Penn. ### Human Capital The majority of employees of the Corporation are employed by the Bank, with a shared services agreement to support the operation of the holding company. As of December 31, 2022, the Bank had 580 full-time and 31 part-time employees. Additionally, Mid Penn’s nonbank subsidiaries employed 10 full-time employees as of December 31, 2022. The Corporation and its employees are not subject to a collective bargaining agreement and the Corporation believes it enjoys good relations with its employees. #### Diversity & Inclusion The Corporation believes that a diverse and inclusive workforce fosters an environment where everyone can thrive and be successful. As of December 31, 2022 approximately 70% of our workforce is female. Bank leadership has seen the benefits of Employee Resource Groups ("ERG") within our organization. In 2022, Mid Penn formalized committee members on our Women’s Leadership Network, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion ("DEI"), and our Culture Committees. Each group allows employees to come together based on a shared characteristics to address common challenges and to drive positive impact within the workforce. We have found that our Women’s Leadership Network has provided a sense of belonging and camaraderie for our primarily female workforce. Our DEI group has laid the groundwork help to create a more diverse and inclusive workplace by promoting understanding, respect, and awareness of different cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives. Our Culture Committee has focused on contributing to a positive organizational culture by fostering open communication, collaboration, and a sense of community, this sense of community is important to Mid Penn as we continue to expand geographically. We have found that employees who belong to any of our ERGs are more engaged, are developing leadership skills, and are gaining new experiences through volunteer and networking opportunities. #### Education and Development We encourage and support the growth and development of our employees and, wherever possible, seek to fill positions by promotion within the organization. The education and development of our employees is a priority, and we continue to invest in tools, education programs, certifications and continuing education to help our employees build their knowledge, skills and experience. We provide in-house training to employees on topics including leadership and professional development, cybersecurity, risk, compliance and technology. #### Benefits On an ongoing basis, we further promote the health and wellness of our employees by strongly encouraging work-life balance. Our benefits package includes health care coverage, retirement benefits, life and disability insurance, tuition-reimbursement, parental leave, wellness programs, and paid time off. #### Retention Employee retention helps us operate efficiently and offers continuity to our customers and the community. We believe our concern for our employees’ well-being, supporting our employees’ career goals, offering competitive wages and providing valuable benefits aids in retention of our employees. #### Community Involvement The Bank is dedicated to supporting charitable community organizations through corporate donations, employee volunteerism and fundraising. In 2022, our employees demonstrated their commitment to our communities by personally giving more than $50 thousand to charitable organizations within Mid Penn’s footprint through our Dress Down Friday program. ### Lending Activities The Bank offers a variety of loan products to its customers, including commercial real estate loans, residential real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, and consumer loans. The Bank’s primary lending objectives are as follows: - to establish relationships with creditworthy customers who exhibit positive historical repayment trends, stable cash flows and secondary sources of repayment from tangible collateral; - to establish a diversified loan portfolio; and - to provide a satisfactory return to Mid Penn’s shareholders by properly pricing loans to include the cost of funds, administrative costs, bad debts, local economic conditions, competition, customer relationships, the term of the loan, credit risk, collateral quality and a reasonable profit margin. Credit risk is managed through portfolio diversification, underwriting policies and procedures, and loan monitoring practices. Lenders are provided with detailed underwriting policies for all types of credit risks accepted by the Bank and must obtain appropriate internal approvals for credit extensions. The Bank also maintains strict documentation requirements and robust credit quality assurance practices in order to identify credit portfolio weaknesses as early as possible, so any exposures that are discovered might be mitigated or potential losses reduced. The Bank generally secures its loans with real estate, with such collateral values dependent and subject to change based on real estate market conditions within its market area. As of December 31, 2022, the Bank’s highest concentration of credit is in commercial real estate. ### Investment Activities Mid Penn’s securities portfolio is a source for both liquidity and interest earnings and serves to support pledging requirements on public funds deposits through investments in primarily higher-quality, fixed-income debt securities. Mid Penn does not have any significant non-governmental concentrations within its investment securities portfolio. Mid Penn maintains both a held-to-maturity investment portfolio and an available-for-sale investment portfolio. Both portfolios are comprised primarily of lower-risk debt securities, including U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agencies, mortgage-backed U.S. government agencies, investment-grade municipal securities, and corporate bonds. The held-to-maturity portfolio was established to support the Bank’s growth in public fund deposits, which may require pledging of investment securities. The investments in the held-to-maturity portfolio are recorded on the balance sheet at book value (amortized cost), while the available-for-sale securities are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. These debt securities derive fair values relative to investments of the same type and credit profile with similar maturity dates. As the interest rate environment changes, Mid Penn’s fair value of securities will change. This difference between the amortized cost and fair value of available-for-sale investment securities, or unrealized loss, amounted to $24.5 million as of December 31, 2022. On an after-tax basis, this unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities resulted in a reduction to shareholders’ equity, through the accumulated other comprehensive loss component, of $19.1 million. No investments in either the held-to-maturity portfolio or available-for-sale portfolio as of December 31, 2022 were deemed to have other-than-temporary-impairment. The majority of the investments are high quality United States and municipal securities that, if held to maturity, are expected to result in no realized loss to the Bank. ### Deposits and Other Sources of Funds The Bank primarily uses deposits and, to a lesser extent, wholesale borrowings to finance lending and investment activities. Wholesale borrowing sources include advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (the "FHLB"), overnight borrowings from the Bank’s other correspondent banking relationships, and advances from the Federal Reserve’s Discount Window. All borrowings, except for lines of credit with the Bank’s correspondent banks, require collateral in the form of loans or securities. Collateral levels, therefore, limit the extent of borrowings and the available lines of credit extended by the Bank’s creditors. As a result, generating and retaining retail deposits remains critical to the future funding and growth of the business. Deposit growth within the banking industry has been subject to strong competition from a variety of financial services companies. This competition may require financial institutions to adjust their product offerings and pricing to maintain and grow deposits. Additionally, the safety of traditional bank deposit products has remained an attractive option during periods of market volatility. Mid Penn’s ability to attract retail funds in the future will continue to be impacted by the public’s appetite for the safety of insured or local investments versus the returns offered by alternative choices as part of their personal investment mix. ### Competition The financial services and banking business is highly competitive, and the profitability of Mid Penn depends principally upon the Corporation’s ability to successfully compete in its market area. The Bank actively competes with other financial services companies for deposit, loan, trust and wealth management business. Competitors include other commercial banks, credit unions, savings banks, savings and loan associations, insurance companies, securities brokerage firms, finance companies, mutual funds, and product/service alternatives via the Internet. Financial institutions compete primarily on the quality of services rendered, interest rates on loans and deposits, service charges, the convenience of banking facilities, location and hours of operation and, in the case of loans to larger commercial borrowers, relative lending limits. Many competitors are larger than the Corporation and have significantly greater financial resources, personnel and locations from which to conduct business. In addition, the Bank is subject to banking regulations while certain non-banking competitors may not be subject to similar regulations. For more information, see the "Supervision and Regulation" section below and Item 1A, "Risk Factors". Mid Penn has been able to compete effectively with other financial institutions by emphasizing customer-focused relationship management and services, convenient hours, efficient and friendly employees, a consultative sales approach, local decision making, and quality products. ### Supervision and Regulation #### General Financial holding companies and banks are extensively regulated under both federal and state laws. The regulation and supervision of the Corporation and particularly the Bank are primarily focused on the protection of depositors, the DIF, and the monetary system, and do not prioritize shareholder interests. Enforcement actions that may be imposed by federal and state banking regulators include the imposition of a conservator or receiver, cease-and-desist orders and written agreements, the termination of insurance on deposits, the imposition of civil money penalties, and removal and prohibition orders. If a banking regulator takes any enforcement action, the value of an equity investment in Mid Penn could be substantially reduced or eliminated. As of December 31, 2022, the Corporation was not subject to any supervisory enforcement actions. Federal and state banking laws contain numerous provisions affecting various aspects of the business and operations of Mid Penn and the Bank. Mid Penn is subject to, among others, the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve"). The Bank is subject to, among others, the regulations of the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities and the FDIC. The descriptions below of, and references to, applicable statutes and regulations are not intended to be complete lists or reflective of all applicable provisions or their effects on the Corporation. They are summaries of the more significant laws and regulations and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete provisions of such statutes and regulations. #### Holding Company Regulation Mid Penn is a registered financial holding company subject to supervision and regulation by the Federal Reserve. As such, it is subject to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 ("BHCA") and many of the Federal Reserve’s regulations promulgated thereunder. The Federal Reserve has broad enforcement powers over financial and bank holding companies, including the power to impose substantial fines and civil penalties. The BHCA requires Mid Penn to file an annual report with the Federal Reserve regarding the holding company and its subsidiary bank. The Federal Reserve also conducts examinations of the holding company. The Bank is not a member of the Federal Reserve System; however, the Federal Reserve possesses cease-and-desist powers over financial and bank holding companies and their subsidiaries where actions would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice or violation of law. The Federal Reserve also makes policy that applies to the declaration and distribution of dividends by financial and bank holding companies. The BHCA restricts a financial or bank holding company’s ability to acquire control of additional banks. In addition, the BHCA restricts the activities in which financial or bank holding companies may engage directly or through nonbank subsidiaries. #### Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Modernization Act Under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Modernization Act ("GLB"), bank holding companies that meet certain management, capital, and Community Reinvestment Act standards, are permitted to elect to become financial holding companies. No prior regulatory approval will be required for a financial holding company to acquire a company, other than a bank or savings association, engaged in certain financial activities permitted under GLB. Activities cited by GLB as being financial in nature include: - securities underwriting, dealing and market making; - sponsoring mutual funds and investment companies; - insurance underwriting and agency; - merchant banking activities; and - activities that the Federal Reserve has determined by regulation to be closely related to banking. In addition to permitting financial holding companies’ entry into new lines of business, the law allows companies the freedom to streamline existing operations and to potentially reduce costs. The GLB may increase both opportunity and competition. In December 2019, Mid Penn made the election to be treated as a financial holding company as its subsidiary bank was well capitalized under the FDIC Improvement Act’s prompt corrective action provisions, the holding company and Bank were deemed by the regulators to be well managed, and the Bank had at least a satisfactory rating under the Community Reinvestment Act. The required filing supporting this election was a declaration that the bank holding company wished to become a financial holding company and met all applicable requirements. Mid Penn made the election given the Corporation’s growth and the intended broadening spectrum of financial product and service offerings to potentially include, but not be limited to, insurance and wealth management services. #### Bank Regulation As a Pennsylvania-chartered, non-member bank, the Bank is subject to supervision, regulation and examination by both the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities and the FDIC. The deposits of the Bank are insured by the FDIC to the maximum extent provided by law. The FDIC assesses deposit insurance premiums, the amount of which depends in part on both the asset size and the condition of the Bank. Moreover, the FDIC may terminate deposit insurance of the Bank under certain circumstances. The federal and state banking regulatory agencies have broad enforcement powers over depository institutions under their jurisdiction, including the power to terminate deposit insurance, to impose fines and other civil and criminal penalties, and to appoint a conservator or receiver if any of a number of conditions is met. In addition, the Bank is subject to a variety of local, state and federal laws that affect its operations. Banking regulations affect a wide range of the Bank’s activities and operations, including, but not limited to, permissible types and amounts of loans, investments and other activities, capital adequacy, branching, interest rates on loans, compensation standards, payment of dividends, various bank account and bank service disclosures, and the safety and soundness of banking practices. #### Capital Requirements, Prompt Corrective Action and Basel III Capital Reforms Under risk-based capital requirements for financial or bank holding companies, Mid Penn is required to maintain a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets (including certain off-balance-sheet activities, such as standby letters of credit) of 10.5%. At least half of the total capital is to be composed of common equity, retained earnings and qualifying perpetual preferred stock, less goodwill ("Tier 1 Capital"). The remainder may consist of subordinated debt, non-qualifying preferred stock and a limited amount of the loan loss allowance ("Tier 2 Capital"). Combined, the Tier 1 Capital and Tier 2 Capital comprise regulatory "Total Capital". As of December 31, 2022, Mid Penn complied with these risk-based capital requirements. In addition, the Federal Reserve has established minimum leverage ratio requirements for bank holding companies. These requirements provide for a minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 Capital to adjusted average quarterly assets ("leverage ratio") equal to 3% for bank holding companies that meet certain specified criteria, including having the highest regulatory rating. All other bank holding companies will generally be required to maintain a leverage ratio of at least 4-5%. The requirements also provide that bank holding companies experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels without significant reliance on intangible assets. Furthermore, the requirements indicate that the Federal Reserve will continue to consider a "Tangible Tier 1 Leverage Ratio" (deducting all intangibles) in evaluating proposals for expansion or new activity. As of December 31, 2022, Mid Penn has met these leverage requirements, and the Federal Reserve has not advised Mid Penn of any specific minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio requirement. The Bank is subject to similar capital requirements adopted by the FDIC, and as of December 31, 2022, the Bank’s capital levels were sufficient to be considered "well-capitalized". The FDIC has not advised the Bank of any specific minimum leverage ratios. The capital ratios of Mid Penn and the Bank are described in "Note 17 - Regulatory Matters", within Item 8, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included herein. Banking regulators may further refine capital requirements applicable to banking organizations, including those discussed in the "Regulatory Capital Changes" section below. Changes to capital requirements could materially affect the profitability of Mid Penn or the fair value of Mid Penn stock. In addition to the required minimum capital levels described above, federal law establishes a system of "prompt corrective actions" which federal banking agencies are required to take, and certain actions which they have discretion to take, based upon the capital category into which a federally regulated depository institution falls. Regulations set forth detailed procedures and criteria for implementing prompt corrective action in the case of any institution that is not adequately capitalized. Under the rules, an institution will be deemed to be "adequately capitalized" if it exceeds the minimum federal regulatory capital requirements. However, it will be deemed "undercapitalized" if it fails to meet the minimum capital requirements, "significantly undercapitalized" if it has a Total Risk-Based Capital ratio that is less than 6%, a Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratio that is less than 3%, or a leverage ratio that is less than 3%, and "critically undercapitalized" if the institution has a ratio of tangible equity to total assets that is equal to or less than 2%. The prompt corrective action rules require an undercapitalized institution to file a written capital restoration plan, along with a performance guaranty by its holding company or a third party. In addition, an undercapitalized institution becomes subject to certain automatic restrictions including a prohibition on payment of dividends, a limitation on asset growth and expansion, in certain cases, a limitation on the payment of bonuses or raises to senior executive officers, and a prohibition on the payment of certain "management fees" to any "controlling person". Institutions that are classified as undercapitalized are also subject to certain additional supervisory actions, including increased reporting burdens and regulatory monitoring, a limitation on the institution’s ability to make acquisitions, open new branch offices, or engage in new lines of business, obligations to raise additional capital, restrictions on transactions with affiliates, and restrictions on interest rates paid by the institution on deposits. In certain cases, bank regulatory agencies may require replacement of senior executive officers or directors, or sale of the institution to a willing purchaser. If an institution is deemed "critically undercapitalized" and continues in that category for four quarters, the statute requires, with certain limited exceptions, that the institution be placed in receivership. Mid Penn and the Bank are subject to the Basel III Rules that are based upon the final framework of the Basel Committee for strengthening capital and liquidity regulation. Under the Basel III Rules, Mid Penn and the Bank apply the standardized approach in measuring risk weighted assets ("RWA") and regulatory capital. Under the Basel III Rules, Mid Penn and the Bank are subject to the following minimum capital ratios: - Common equity tier 1 capital ("CET1")to risk-weighted assets of 4.5% - Tier 1 capital to RWA of 6.0% - Total capital to RWA of 8.0% - Leverage ratio of 4.0% The Basel III Rules also included a "capital conservation buffer" of 2.5%, composed entirely of CET1, in addition to the minimum capital to RWA ratios outlined above, resulting in effective minimum common equity tier 1, Tier 1 and total capital ratios of 7.0%, 8.5% and 10.5%, respectively. The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with a capital ratio above the minimum, but below the conservation buffer, will face restrictions on dividends, equity repurchases, and executive compensation based on the amount of the shortfall and the institution's "eligible retained income" (that is, four quarter trailing net income, net of distributions and tax effects not reflected in net income). As of December 31, 2022, the Corporation and the Bank exceeded the minimum capital requirements, including the capital conservation buffer, as prescribed in the Basel III Rules. The Basel III Rules provide for a number of required deductions from and adjustments to CET1. These deductions and adjustments include, for example, goodwill, other intangible assets, and deferred tax assets ("DTAs") that arise from net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards net of any related valuation allowance. MSRs, DTAs arising from temporary differences that could not be realized through net operating loss carrybacks and investments in non-consolidated financial institutions must also be deducted from CET1 to the extent that they exceed certain thresholds. Through subsequent rulemaking, the federal banking agencies provided certain forms of relief to banking organizations, such as Mid Penn and the Bank, that are not subject to the advanced approaches framework. Mid Penn and the Bank made a one-time, permanent election under the Basel III Rules to exclude the effects of certain components of accumulated ("AOCI") included in shareholders' equity under generally accepted accounting principals in the United States ("GAAP") in determining regulatory capital ratios. Under the Basel III Rules, certain off-balance sheet commitments and obligations are converted into RWA, that together with on-balance sheet assets, are the base against which regulatory capital is measured. The Basel III Rules defined the risk-weighting categories for bank holding companies and banks that follow the standardized approach, such as Mid Penn and the Bank, based on a risk-sensitive analysis, depending on the nature of the exposure. The Capital Simplifications Rules eliminated the standalone prior approval requirement in the Basel III Rules for any repurchase of common stock. In certain circumstances, repurchases of our common stock may be subject to a prior approval or notice requirement under other regulations or policies of the Federal Reserve. Any redemption or repurchase of preferred stock or subordinated debt remains subject to the prior approval of the Federal Reserve. #### Safety and Soundness Standards The federal banking regulatory agencies have adopted a set of guidelines prescribing safety and soundness standards for depository institutions such as the Bank. The guidelines establish general standards relating to management practices, internal controls and information systems, internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth, asset quality, liquidity, capital, earnings, compensation, fees and benefits. In general, the guidelines require, among other things, appropriate systems and practices to identify and manage the risks and exposures specified in the guidelines. The guidelines prohibit excessive compensation as an unsafe and unsound practice and describe compensation as excessive when the amounts paid are unreasonable or disproportionate to the services performed by an executive officer, employee, director or principal shareholder. In addition, the agencies adopted regulations that authorize an agency to order an institution that has been given notice by an agency that it is not satisfying any of such safety and soundness standards to submit a compliance plan. If an institution is not satisfying certain safety and soundness standards and fails to submit to the banking regulatory agency an acceptable compliance plan or fails to implement an accepted plan, the agency may issue an order directing action to correct the deficiency and may issue an order directing other actions be taken, including restricting asset growth, restricting interest rates paid on deposits, restricting dividend payments to shareholders, and requiring an increase in the institution’s ratio of tangible equity to assets. For the periods reported in this Form 10-K and in the period subsequent to December 31, 2022, up to the date of the filing of this Form 10-K, Mid Penn was not subject to any such bank regulatory orders. #### Payment of Dividends and Other Restrictions Mid Penn’s holding company is a legal entity separate and distinct from its wholly-owned Bank subsidiary. There are various legal and regulatory limitations on the extent to which the Bank can, among other things, finance, or otherwise supply funds to the holding company. Specifically, dividends from the Bank are the principal source of the holding company’s cash funds, and there are certain legal restrictions under Pennsylvania law and Pennsylvania banking regulations on the payment of dividends by state-chartered banks. The relevant regulatory agencies also have authority to prohibit Mid Penn and the Bank from engaging in what, in the opinion of such regulatory body, constitutes an unsafe or unsound banking practice. Depending upon the financial condition of the holding company and the Bank, the payment of dividends could be deemed by a regulatory agency to constitute such an unsafe or unsound practice. The holding company and the Bank were not subject to any such dividend prohibitions during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020. #### Deposit Insurance The FDIC insures deposits of the Bank through the DIF. The FDIC maintains the DIF by assessing depository institutions an insurance premium. The amount each institution is assessed is based upon a variety of factors that include the level of assets and tangible equity, and the condition of the Bank (the degree of risk the institution poses to the insurance fund). The FDIC insures deposits up to $250,000. The Bank pays an insurance premium into the DIF based on a regulatory defined assessment calculation. The FDIC uses a risk-based premium system that assesses higher rates on those institutions that pose greater risks to the DIF. The FDIC places each institution in one of four risk categories using a two-step process based first on capital ratios (the capital group assignment) and then on other relevant information (the supervisory group assignment). Subsequently, the rate for each institution within a risk category may be adjusted depending upon different factors that either enhance or reduce the risk the institution poses to the DIF, including the unsecured debt, secured liabilities and brokered deposits related to each institution. Finally, certain risk multipliers may be applied to the adjusted assessment. Beginning with the second quarter of 2011 and as applicable continuously through to the current period, as mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act, the assessment base that the FDIC uses to calculate assessment premiums is the Bank’s average assets minus average tangible equity. As the asset base of the banking industry is larger than the deposit base, the range of assessment rates is a low of 2.5 bp and a high of 45 bp, per $100 of assets. The FDIC is required under the Dodd-Frank Act to establish assessment rates that will allow the DIF to achieve a reserve ratio of 1.35% of Insurance Fund insured deposits by September 2020. In addition, the FDIC has established a "designated reserve ratio" of 2%, a target ratio that, until it is achieved, will not likely result in the FDIC reducing assessment rates. In attempting to achieve the mandated 1.35% ratio, the FDIC is required to implement assessment formulas that charge banks over $10 billion in asset size more than banks under that size. These new formulas did not affect the Bank as it was less than $10 billion in total assets size. During the third quarter of 2019, Mid Penn received notification from the FDIC that the FDIC’s Deposit Insurance Fund reserve ratio met a threshold resulting in the FDIC providing the Bank with a $492,000 credit, which was applied to the deposit insurance assessments for both the second and third quarters of 2019. #### Consumer Protection Laws A number of laws govern the relationship between the Bank and its customers. For example, the Community Reinvestment Act is designed to encourage services, investments, and lending activities in low- and moderate-income areas. The Home Mortgage Disclosure Act and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act attempt to minimize lending decisions based on impermissible criteria, such as race or gender. The Truth-in-Lending Act and the Truth-in-Savings Act require banks to provide certain disclosure of relevant terms related to loans and savings accounts, respectively. Anti-tying restrictions (which prohibit conditioning the availability or terms of credit on the purchase of another banking product) further restrict the Bank’s relationships with its customers. The Bank maintains a comprehensive compliance management program to promote its compliance with these and other applicable consumer protection laws and regulations. #### Privacy Laws The federal banking regulators have issued a number of regulations governing the privacy of consumer financial and customer information. The regulations limit the disclosure by financial institutions, such as the Corporation and Bank, of nonpublic personal information about individuals who obtain financial products or services for personal, family, or household purposes. Subject to certain exceptions allowed by law, the regulations cover information sharing between financial institutions and nonaffiliated third parties. More specifically, the regulations require financial institutions to provide: - initial notices to customers about their privacy policies, describing the conditions under which they may disclose nonpublic personal financial information to nonaffiliated third parties and affiliates; - annual notices of their privacy policies to their current customers; and - a reasonable method for consumers to "opt out" of disclosures to nonaffiliated third parties. #### Affiliate Transactions Transactions between the Bank and the Corporation, and/or its nonbank subsidiary affiliates are governed by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act. An "affiliate" of a bank or savings institution is any company or entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the bank or savings institution. Generally, a subsidiary of a depository institution that is not also a depository institution is not treated as an affiliate of the bank for purposes of Sections 23A and 23B. Sections 23A and 23B are intended to protect insured depository institutions from suffering losses arising from transactions with non-insured affiliates, by limiting the extent to which a bank or its subsidiaries may engage in covered transactions with any one affiliate and with all affiliates of the bank in the aggregate, and requiring that such transactions be on terms that are consistent with safe and sound banking practices. #### The USA Patriot Act, Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorism Financing The Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 ("USA Patriot Act") broadened the application of anti-money laundering regulations to apply to additional types of financial institutions, such as broker-dealers, and strengthened the ability of the U.S. government to detect and prosecute international money laundering and the financing of terrorism. Under Title III of the USA Patriot Act, also known as the International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorism Financing Act of 2001, all financial institutions, including Mid Penn and the Bank, are required in general to identify their customers, adopt formal and comprehensive anti-money laundering programs, scrutinize or prohibit altogether certain transactions of special concern, and be prepared to respond to inquiries from U.S. law enforcement agencies concerning their customers and their transactions. The principal provisions of Title III of the USA Patriot Act require that regulated financial institutions, including state-chartered banks: - establish an anti-money laundering program that includes training and audit components; - comply with regulations regarding the verification of the identity of any person seeking to open an account; - take additional required precautions with non-U.S. owned accounts; and - perform certain verification and certification of money laundering risk for their foreign correspondent banking relationships. Additional information-sharing among financial institutions, regulators, and law enforcement authorities is encouraged for financial institutions that comply with this provision and the authorization of the Secretary of the Treasury to adopt rules to further encourage cooperation and information-sharing. The USA Patriot Act also expanded the conditions under which funds in a U.S. interbank account may be subject to forfeiture and increased the penalties for violation of anti-money laundering regulations. Failure of a financial institution to comply with the USA Patriot Act’s requirements could have serious legal and reputational consequences for the institution. The effectiveness of a financial institution in combating money-laundering activities is a factor to be considered in any application submitted by the financial institution under the Bank Merger Act, which applies to the Bank. The Bank has adopted policies, procedures and controls to address compliance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act under the existing regulations and will continue to revise and update its policies, procedures and controls to reflect changes required by the USA Patriot Act and implementing regulations. #### JOBS Act In 2012, the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the "JOBS Act") became law. The JOBS Act is aimed at facilitating capital raising by smaller companies, banks, and bank holding companies. Certain changes implemented by the JOBS Act that impacted Mid Penn included (i) raising the threshold requiring registration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") for banks and bank holdings companies from 500 to 2,000 holders of record, and (ii) raising the threshold for triggering deregistration under the Exchange Act for banks and bank holding companies from 300 to 1,200 holders of record. #### Dodd-Frank Act The Dodd-Frank Act, which became law in July 2010, significantly changed regulation of financial institutions and the financial services industry. Dodd-Frank created a Financial Services Oversight Council to identify emerging systemic risks and improve interagency cooperation, and centralized responsibility for consumer financial protection by creating a new agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which is responsible for implementing, examining and enforcing compliance with federal consumer financial laws. Dodd-Frank also permanently raised the current standard maximum deposit insurance amount to $250,000, established strengthened capital standards for banks, disallowed certain trust preferred securities from qualifying as Tier 1 Capital (subject to certain grandfather provisions for existing trust preferred securities), established new minimum mortgage underwriting standards, granted the Federal Reserve the power to regulate debit card interchange fees, and implemented corporate governance changes. #### Effects of Government Policy and Potential Changes in Regulation Changes in regulations applicable to the Corporation, the Bank, or its nonbank subsidiaries, or shifts in monetary or other government policies, could have a material effect on our business. The Corporation’s business is also affected by the state of the financial services industry in general. As a result of legal, economic, and competitive changes, management believes that the Corporation and the financial services industry will continue to experience an increased rate of change from both the opportunities and competitive challenges resulting from greater product and service offerings, technological advancements, and business combinations. From time to time, legislation is enacted that has the effect of increasing the compliance and operations requirements and the cost of doing business, changing the tax structure applicable to Mid Penn, limiting or expanding permissible activities, or affecting the competitive balance between banks and other financial institutions. Proposals to change the laws and regulations governing the operations and taxation of banks, bank holding companies and other financial institutions are frequently made in Congress and the various bank regulatory agencies. Mid Penn cannot predict the likelihood of any major changes or the impact such changes might have on Mid Penn, the Bank, or the nonbank subsidiaries. Congressional bills and other proposals could result in additional significant changes to the financial services and banking system, including, but not limited to, provisions for limitations on deposit insurance coverage, changing the timing and method financial institutions use to pay for deposit insurance, expanding the power of banks by removing the restrictions on bank underwriting activities, changing the regulation of bank derivatives activities, and allowing commercial enterprises to own banks. As a consequence of the extensive regulation of commercial banking activities in the United States, the Bank’s business is particularly susceptible to being affected by federal legislation and regulations that may increase the costs of doing business or change the Corporation’s competitive landscape. Whether any future legislation will be enacted or additional regulations will be adopted, and how they might impact Mid Penn, cannot be determined at this time. Mid Penn’s earnings are, and will be affected by, domestic economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government and its agencies. The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve have had, and will likely continue to have, an impact on the operating results of commercial banks because of the Federal Reserve’s power to implement national monetary policy to, among other things, promote employment, control inflation or combat recession. The Federal Reserve has a major impact on the loan and deposit rates offered by the Bank and its competitors, and on the levels of bank loans, investments and deposits, through its open market operations in United States government securities and through its regulation of, among other things, the discount rate on borrowings of member banks and the reserve requirements against member bank deposits. It is not possible to reasonably predict the nature, amount, frequency, and impact of future changes in monetary and fiscal policies. #### Environmental Laws Management does not anticipate that compliance with environmental laws and regulations will have any material effect on Mid Penn’s capital, expenditures, earnings, or competitive position. However, environmentally-related hazards have become a source of high risk and liability for some financial institutions. Additionally, the Pennsylvania Economic Development Agency, Fiduciary and Lender Environmental Liability Protection Act provides, among other things, protection to lenders from environmental liability and remediation costs under the environmental laws for releases and contamination caused by others. A lender who engages in activities involved in the routine practices of commercial lending, including, but not limited to, the providing of financial services, holding of security interests, workout practices, foreclosure or the recovery of funds from the sale of property shall not be liable under the environmental acts or common law equivalents to the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources or to any other person by virtue of the fact that the lender engages in such commercial lending practice. A lender, however, will be liable if it, its employees or agents, directly cause an immediate release or directly exacerbate a release of a regulated substance on or from the property, or knew and willfully compelled the borrower to commit an action which caused such release or to violate an environmental act. The Pennsylvania Economic Development Agency, Fiduciary and Lender Environmental Liability Protection Act does not limit federal liability, which still exists under certain circumstances. #### Corporate Governance The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("SOX") and related rules and regulations adopted by the SEC and NASDAQ addressed the following issues: corporate governance, auditor independence and accounting standards, executive compensation, insider loans, whistleblower protection, and enhanced and timely disclosure of corporate information. Mid Penn has established policies, procedures, and systems designed to promote compliance with these regulations. Section 404 of SOX requires publicly held companies to document, test and certify that their internal control systems over financial reporting are effective. Effective for year-end financial reports beginning with December 31, 2017, Mid Penn is subject to the independent attestation requirement under Section 404 of the SOX. The Bank remains subject to independent auditor attestation under FDIC regulation 363.3(b), which is a similar independent attestation requirement at the Bank level. ### Available Information Mid Penn’s common stock is registered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act and is traded on NASDAQ under the trading symbol MPB.

Before investing in Mid Penn common stock, an investor should carefully read and consider the risk factors described below, which are not intended to be all inclusive, and to review other information contained in this report and in our other filings with the SEC. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing Mid Penn’s holding company, the Bank, and nonbank subsidiaries. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are not aware of, or that we currently deem less significant, or that we are otherwise not specifically focused on, may also impact our business, results of operations, and our common stock. If any of these known or unknown risks or uncertainties actually occurs, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. If this were to happen, the market price of our common stock could decline significantly, and an investor could lose all or part of his or her investment in Mid Penn. Unless the context otherwise requires, references to "we," "us," "our," "Mid Penn," or "Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc.," collectively refer to Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries, and specific references to the "Bank" refer to Mid Penn Bank, the wholly owned banking subsidiary of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. ### Risks Related to Our Primary Business and Industry #### Mid Penn is subject to interest rate risk. Mid Penn’s earnings and cash flows are largely dependent upon the Bank’s net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income earned on interest-earning assets such as loans and securities, and interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities such as deposits and borrowed funds. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors that are beyond Mid Penn’s control, including general economic conditions and policies of various governmental and regulatory agencies and, in particular, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve"). Changes in monetary policy, including changes in interest rates, could influence not only the interest income the Bank receives on loans and securities and the amount of interest expense it pays on deposits and borrowings, but such changes could also affect (i) the Bank’s ability to originate loans and obtain deposits, (ii) the fair value of financial assets and liabilities, and (iii) the average duration of mortgage-backed securities in the Bank’s investment portfolio. If the interest rates paid on deposits and other borrowings increase at a faster rate than the interest rates received on loans and other investments, Mid Penn’s net interest income, and therefore earnings, could be adversely affected. Earnings could also be adversely affected if the interest rates received on loans and investments fall more quickly than the interest rates paid on deposits and borrowings. Mid Penn may be subject to a greater risk of rising interest rates due to the current period of rising interest rates and high inflation. The Federal Reserve aggressively raised interest rates in 2022 to curb inflation, which is likely to drive down the prices of income or dividend-paying securities. The risk that interest rates may continue to rise is pronounced. Management believes it has implemented effective asset and liability management strategies and interest rate risk management activities to reduce the potential effects of changes in interest rates on Mid Penn’s results of operations. Any substantial, unexpected, prolonged, or rapid change in market interest rates could have a material adverse effect on the Bank’s net interest income and Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations. #### Mid Penn is subject to credit risk. As of December 31, 2022, approximately 88% of the Bank’s loan portfolio consisted of commercial real estate, commercial and industrial, and agricultural loans. These types of loans are generally viewed as having more risk of default than residential real estate loans or secured consumer loans. Commercial loans are also typically larger than residential real estate loans and consumer loans. Because the loan portfolio contains a significant number of commercial and industrial loans, and construction and commercial real estate loans with relatively large balances, the deterioration of one or a few of these loans could cause a significant increase in non-performing loans. In addition, Mid Penn’s credit risk may be exacerbated when the collateral held by Mid Penn cannot be readily realized or liquidated at prices sufficient to recover the full amount of the credit or derivative exposure due to Mid Penn. An increase in non-performing loans or collateral value deficiencies could result in a net loss of earnings from these loans, an increase in the provision for possible loan losses and an increase in loan charge-offs, all of which could have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations. *The allowance for loan losses may be not be sufficient to cover actual loan losses.* As of December 31, 2022, Mid Penn maintains an allowance for loan losses, which is a reserve established that represents management’s best estimate of probable losses that have been incurred within the existing portfolio of loans. The allowance, in the judgment of management, is necessary to reserve for estimated loan losses and risks inherent in the loan portfolio. The level of the allowance reflects management’s continuing evaluation of industry concentrations; specific credit risks; loan loss experience; current loan portfolio quality; changes in present economic, political and regulatory conditions; other external factors such as the ongoing pandemic; and unidentified losses inherent in the current loan portfolio. The determination of the appropriate level of the allowance for possible loan losses inherently involves a high degree of subjectivity and requires Mid Penn to make significant estimates of current credit risks and future trends, all of which may undergo material changes. Changes in economic conditions affecting borrowers, the impact of the ongoing pandemic, new information regarding existing loans, identification of additional problem credits and other factors, both within and outside of Mid Penn’s control, impact the determination of the allowance. In addition, bank regulatory agencies periodically review Mid Penn’s allowance for possible loan losses and may require an increase in the provision for possible loan losses or the recognition of further loan charge-offs, based on judgments different than those of management. In the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, the Financial Accounting Standards Board determined to review how banks estimate losses in the allowance calculation, and it issued the final current expected credit loss standard (“CECL”) in June 2016. For Mid Penn, the current allowance model will be replaced by the new CECL model effective for the first interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Under the new CECL model, financial institutions will be required to use historical information, current conditions and reasonable forecasts to estimate the expected loss over the life of the loan. The transition to the CECL model will bring with it significantly greater data requirements and changes to methodologies to accurately account for expected losses under the new parameters, based on current estimates, management estimates that this increase will be no greater than 200% of the total credit loss reserve as of December 31, 2022. This estimate is subject to change based on continuing refinement and validation of the model and methodologies. at adoption date. Any increase in the allowance resulting from future charge-offs or the transition from the current allowance for loan loss model to the CECL model will result in a decrease in net income and, possibly, capital, and may have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations. *Competition from other financial institutions may adversely affect Mid Penn’s and the Bank’s profitability.* Mid Penn’s banking subsidiary faces substantial competition in originating both commercial and consumer loans. This competition comes principally from other banks, credit unions, savings institutions, mortgage banking companies and other lenders. Many of its larger competitors who offer loans enjoy advantages over the Bank, including greater financial resources and higher lending limits, a wider geographic presence, more accessible branch office locations, the ability to offer a wider array of services or more favorable pricing alternatives, as well as lower origination and operating costs. This competition could reduce Mid Penn’s net income by decreasing the number and size of loans that its banking subsidiary originates and the interest rates it may charge on these loans. In attracting business and consumer deposits, the Bank faces substantial competition from other insured depository institutions such as other commercial banks, savings institutions and credit unions, as well as institutions offering uninsured investment alternatives, including money market funds. Many of Mid Penn’s larger competitors who accept deposits also enjoy advantages over the Bank, including greater financial resources, more aggressive marketing campaigns, better brand recognition, and more convenient branch locations. These competitors may offer higher interest rates than Mid Penn, which could decrease the deposits that the Bank attracts or require an increase in rates and interest expense to retain existing deposits or attract new deposits. Increased deposit competition could adversely affect Mid Penn’s ability to generate the funds necessary for lending operations. As a result, Mid Penn may need to seek other sources of funds that may be more expensive to obtain and could increase its cost of funds. Mid Penn’s banking subsidiary and nonbank subsidiaries also compete with non-banking providers of financial services, such as brokerage firms, consumer finance companies, credit unions, insurance agencies and governmental organizations, which may offer more favorable terms. Some of its non-banking competitors are not subject to the same extensive and costly regulations that govern Mid Penn’s operations. As a result, such non-banking competitors may have advantages over Mid Penn’s banking subsidiary and nonbank subsidiaries in providing certain products and services. This competition may reduce or limit Mid Penn’s margins on banking services, revenues from nonbanking subsidiaries’ activities, reduce its market share and adversely affect its earnings and financial condition. *The discontinuance of LIBOR presents risks to the financial instruments originated, held or serviced by Mid Penn that use LIBOR as a reference rate.* The London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and certain other "benchmarks" are the subject of recent national, international, and other regulatory guidance and proposals for reform. These reforms may cause such benchmarks to perform differently than in the past or have other consequences, which cannot be predicted. On July 27, 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA"), which regulates LIBOR, publicly announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021. Since then, regulators, industry groups and certain committees (e.g., the Alternative Reference Rates Committee) have, among other things, published recommended fall-back language for LIBOR-linked financial instruments, identified recommended alternatives for certain LIBOR rates (e.g., the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") as the recommended alternative to U.S. Dollar LIBOR), and proposed implementations of the recommended alternatives in floating rate instruments. As announced on March 5, 2021, the administrator of LIBOR ceased publishing most non-USD LIBOR settings beginning on January 1, 2022 and Mid Penn currently anticipates that it will cease to publish the overnight, one-month, three-month, six-month and 12-month USD LIBOR settings on July 1, 2023. Currently, SOFR is the alternative reference rate replacing LIBOR for most types of transactions. SOFR is viewed as a "riskless rate" as it is derived from rates on overnight U.S. Treasury repurchase transactions, which are essentially overnight loans secured by U.S. Treasury securities, and are largely viewed as not presenting credit risk. The BSBY is another alternative reference rate that is in use primarily in the loan market. BSBY is intended to reflect large banks’ marginal wholesale cost of funds and is a credit-sensitive rate with a forward-looking term structure. In October 2021, the federal bank regulatory agencies issued a Joint Statement on Managing the LIBOR Transition. In that guidance, the agencies offered their regulatory expectations and outlined potential supervisory and enforcement consequences for banks that fail to adequately plan for and implement the transition away from LIBOR. The failure to properly transition away from LIBOR may result in increased supervisory scrutiny. In addition, the implementation of LIBOR reform proposals may result in increased compliance costs and operational costs, including costs related to continued participation in LIBOR and the transition to a replacement reference rate or rates, which cannot currently be reasonably estimated. The discontinuance of LIBOR may result in uncertainty or differences in the calculation of the applicable interest rate or payment amount depending on the terms of the governing documents, may adversely affect the value of Mid Penn’s floating rate obligations, loans, deposits, derivatives, and other financial instruments tied to LIBOR rates and may also increase operational and other risks to Mid Penn and the industry, including reputational and litigation risk. *The Basel III capital requirements require Mid Penn to maintain higher levels of capital, which could reduce profitability.* Basel III established higher levels of base capital, certain capital buffers, and a migration toward common equity as the key source of regulatory capital. Although these capital requirements have been phased in and met by Mid Penn, the Basel III requirements signal a growing effort by domestic and international bank regulatory agencies to require financial institutions, including depository institutions, to maintain higher levels of capital. The Basel III implementation activities and related regulatory capital targets required additional capital to support our business risk profile. Maintaining higher levels of capital potentially reduces opportunities to leverage interest-earning assets, which could limit the net interest income and profitability of Mid Penn, and adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations. *As a participating lender in the SBA Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP"), we are subject to additional risks of litigation from our clients or other parties regarding our processing of loans for the PPP and risks that the SBA may not fund some or all PPP loan guaranties.* On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed the CARES Act, which included a loan program administered through the SBA referred to as the PPP. Under the PPP, small businesses and other entities and individuals were permitted to apply for loans from existing SBA lenders and other approved regulated lenders that enrolled in the program, subject to numerous limitations and eligibility criteria. We participated as a lender in the PPP, which commenced on April 3, 2020. Because of the short timeframe between the passing of the CARES Act and the commencement of the PPP, there was some ambiguity in the laws, rules and guidance regarding the operation of the PPP, which exposes the Corporation to risks relating to noncompliance with the PPP. Since its commencement, several other larger banks have been subject to litigation regarding the process and procedures that such banks used in processing applications for the PPP. We may be exposed to the risk of litigation, from both clients and non-clients that approached us regarding PPP loans, regarding our process and procedures used in processing applications for the PPP. If any such litigation is filed against us and is not resolved in a manner favorable to us, it may result in significant financial liability or adversely affect our reputation. In addition, litigation can be costly, regardless of outcome. Any financial liability, litigation costs or reputational damage caused by PPP related litigation could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We also have credit risk on PPP loans if a determination is made by the SBA that there is a deficiency in the manner in which the loan was originated, funded, or serviced by us, such as an issue with the eligibility of a borrower to receive a PPP loan, which may or may not be related to the ambiguity in the laws, rules and guidance regarding the operation of the PPP. In the event of a loss resulting from a default on a PPP loan and a determination by the SBA that there was a deficiency in the manner in which the PPP loan was originated, funded, or serviced by us, the SBA may deny its liability under the guaranty, reduce the amount of the guaranty, or, if it has already paid under the guaranty, seek recovery of any loss related to the deficiency from us. *Our SBA lending program is dependent upon the federal government and we face specific risks associated with originating SBA loans.* Our SBA lending program is dependent upon the federal government. As an SBA Preferred Lender, we enable our clients to obtain SBA loans without being subject to the potentially lengthy SBA approval process necessary for lenders that are not SBA Preferred Lenders. The SBA periodically reviews the lending operations of participating lenders to assess, among other things, whether the lender exhibits prudent risk management. When weaknesses are identified, the SBA may request corrective actions or impose enforcement actions, including revocation of the lender’s Preferred Lender status. If we lose our status as a Preferred Lender, we may lose some or all of our customers to lenders who are SBA Preferred Lenders. Also, any changes to the SBA program, including changes to the level of guarantee provided by the federal government on SBA loans, could adversely affect our business and earnings. We generally sell the guaranteed portion of our SBA 7(a) program loans in the secondary market. These sales have resulted in premium income for us at the time of sale and created a stream of future servicing income. We may not be able to continue originating these loans or selling them in the secondary market. Furthermore, even if we are able to continue originating and selling SBA 7(a) program loans in the secondary market, we might not continue to realize premiums upon the sale of the guaranteed portion of these loans. When we sell the guaranteed portion of our SBA 7(a) program loans, we incur credit risk on the non-guaranteed portion of the loans, and if a customer defaults on the non-guaranteed portion of a loan, we share any loss and recovery related to the loan pro-rata with the SBA. If the SBA establishes that a loss on an SBA guaranteed loan is attributable to significant technical deficiencies in the manner in which the loan was originated, funded or serviced by us, the SBA may seek recovery of the principal loss related to the deficiency from us, which could adversely affect our business and earnings. The laws, regulations and standard operating procedures that are applicable to SBA loan products may change in the future. We cannot predict the effects of these changes on our business and profitability. Because government regulation greatly affects the business and financial results of all commercial banks and bank holding companies, changes in the laws, regulations and procedures applicable to SBA loans could adversely affect our business and earnings. *Acts of terrorism, natural disasters, global climate change, pandemics and global conflicts may have a negative impact on our business and operations.* Acts of terrorism, natural disasters, global climate change, pandemics, global conflicts or other similar events could have a negative impact on our business and operations. While we have business continuity plans in place, such events occurring or persisting, such as the current COVID-19 or any future pandemic, could disrupt or delay the normal operations of our business and our facilities (including communications and technology), result in harm to or cause travel limitations on our employees, and have a similar impact on our clients, suppliers, third-party vendors and counterparties. These events also could impact us negatively to the extent that they result in reduced capital markets activity, lower asset price levels, or disruptions in general economic activity in the United States or abroad, or in financial market settlement functions. In addition, these or similar events may impact economic growth negatively, which could have an adverse effect on our business and operations and may have other adverse effects on us in ways that we are unable to predict. *The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and measures taken to limit its spread could adversely affect Mid Penn’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.* The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted economic and commercial activity and financial markets. Measures to contain the virus, such as stay-at-home orders, travel restrictions, closure of non-essential businesses, occupancy limitations and social distancing requirements, resulted in significant business and operational disruptions, including business closures, and mass layoffs and furloughs. Though most restrictions have been lifted or eased and consumer and business spending and unemployment levels have improved significantly, the economic recovery has been uneven, with industries such as travel, entertainment, hospitality and food service lagging. Supply chain disruptions precipitated by the abrupt economic slowdown have contributed to increased costs, lost revenue, and inflationary pressures for many segments of the economy. Further, a significant number of workers left their jobs during the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to wage inflation in many industries as businesses attempt to fill vacant positions. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will ultimately affect our business is unknown and will depend, among other things, on the duration of the pandemic, the actions undertaken by national, state and local governments and health officials to contain the virus or mitigate its effects, the safety and effectiveness of the vaccines that have been developed and the extent to which they are accepted by the public, the development of effective therapies, and how quickly and to what extent economic conditions improve and normal business and operating conditions resume. The continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic and the efforts to contain the virus, including effects of economic stimulus, and the exhaustion or expiration of stimulus benefits, could: - reduce the demand for loans and other financial services; - result in increases in loan delinquencies, problem assets, and foreclosures; - cause the value of collateral for loans, especially real estate, to decline in value; - reduce the availability and productivity of our employees; - cause our vendors and counterparties to be unable to meet existing obligations to us; - negatively impact the business and operations of third-party service providers that perform critical services for our business; - cause the value of our securities portfolio to decline; and - cause the net worth and liquidity of loan guarantors to decline, impairing their ability to honor commitments to us. Any one or a combination of the above events could have a material, adverse effect on Mid Penn’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. *Interest rate volatility stemming from COVID-19 could negatively affect our net interest income, lending activities, deposits and profitability.* Our net interest income, lending activities, deposits and profitability could be negatively affected by volatility in interest rates caused by uncertainties stemming from COVID-19. In March 2020, the Federal Reserve lowered the target range for the federal funds rate to a range from 0 to 0.25%, citing concerns about the impact of COVID-19 on markets and stress in the energy sector. In a series of moves beginning March 17, 2022 through February 1, 2023 intended to curb increasing inflation, the Federal Reserve increased the federal funds rate to a target range of 4.5% to 4.75%. A prolonged period of extremely volatile and unstable market conditions would likely increase our funding costs and negatively affect market risk mitigation strategies. Higher income volatility from changes in interest rates and spreads to benchmark indices could cause a loss of future net interest income and a decrease in current fair market values of our assets. Fluctuations in interest rates will impact both the level of income and expense recorded on most of our assets and liabilities and the market value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our net income, operating results, or financial condition. *If Mid Penn’s information systems are interrupted or sustain a breach in security, those events may negatively affect Mid Penn’s financial performance and reputation.* In conducting its business, Mid Penn relies heavily on its information systems. Maintaining and protecting those systems and data is difficult and expensive, as is dealing with any failure, interruption, or breach in security of these systems, whether due to acts or omissions by Mid Penn or by a third party, and whether intentional or not. Any such failure, interruption, or breach could result in failures or disruptions in Mid Penn’s customer relationship management, general ledger, deposit, loan, and other systems. A breach of Mid Penn’s information security may result from fraudulent activity committed against Mid Penn or its clients, resulting in financial loss to Mid Penn or its clients, or privacy breaches against Mid Penn’s clients. Such fraudulent activity may consist of check fraud, electronic fraud, wire fraud, "phishing", social engineering, identity theft, or other deceptive acts. The policies, procedures, and technical safeguards put in place by Mid Penn to prevent or limit the effect of any failure, interruption, or security breach of its information systems and data may be insufficient to prevent or remedy the effects of any such occurrences. The occurrence of any failures, interruptions, or security breaches of Mid Penn’s information systems and data could damage Mid Penn’s reputation, cause Mid Penn to incur additional expenses, result in online services or other businesses becoming inoperable, subject Mid Penn to regulatory sanctions or additional regulatory scrutiny, or expose Mid Penn to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which could have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations. *Mid Penn’s business operations and interaction with customers are increasingly done via technology and electronic delivery channels, and this has increased risks related to cyber-attacks and cyber incidents.* Mid Penn is exposed to the risk of cyber-attacks in the normal course of business. In general, cyber incidents can result from deliberate attacks or unintentional events. An increased level of attention in the industry is focused on cyber-attacks that include, but are not limited to, gaining unauthorized access to digital systems for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data, or causing operational disruption. To combat against these attacks, Mid Penn has certain security systems and policies and procedures in place to prevent or limit the effect of the possible security breach of its information systems and it has insurance against some cyber-risks and attacks. While Mid Penn has not incurred any material losses related to cyber-attacks, nor is it aware of any specific or threatened cyber-incidents as of the date of this report, it may incur substantial costs and suffer other negative consequences if it falls victim to successful cyber-attacks. Such negative consequences could include remediation costs that may include liability for stolen assets or information and repairing system damage that cyber-attacks may have caused; deploying additional personnel and protection technologies, training employees, and engaging third party experts and consultants; lost revenues resulting from unauthorized use of proprietary information or the failure to retain or attract customers following an attack; litigation; and reputational damage adversely affecting customer or investor confidence. *We are required to make a number of judgments in applying generally accepted accounting standards, and different estimates and assumptions in the application of these accounting standards could result in a decrease in capital and/or other material changes to our reports of financial condition and results of operations.* Generally accepted accounting principles involve certain estimates and processes that are particularly susceptible to significant change, including those related to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded lending commitments, the fair value of and potential impairment of certain financial instruments including investment securities, income tax assets or liabilities (including deferred tax assets and any related valuation allowance), and share-based compensation. While we have identified critical accounting policies and have procedures and processes in place to support making the related judgments and estimates, changes to the processes, assumptions, or models in the application of these generally accepted accounting principles, and the impact to the related judgments and estimates could result in a decrease to net income and, possibly, capital and may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board and the SEC issues changes to or updated interpretations of the financial accounting and reporting guidance that governs the preparation of Mid Penn’s financial statements. These changes are beyond our control, can be difficult to predict, and could materially impact how we report our financial condition and results of operations. We could be required to apply new or revised guidance retrospectively, which may result in the revision of prior financial statements by material amounts. The implementation of new or revised guidance could also result in material adverse effects to our reported capital. #### Mid Penn’s mortgage banking income may experience significant volatility. Mortgage banking income is highly influenced by the level and direction of market forces including mortgage interest rates, and real estate and refinancing activity. In lower interest rate environments, the demand for mortgage loans and refinancing activity will tend to increase. This has the effect of increasing fee income but could adversely impact the estimated fair value of Mid Penn’s mortgage servicing rights as the rate of loan prepayments increase. In higher interest rate environments, the demand for mortgage loans and refinancing activity will generally be lower. This has the effect of decreasing mortgage loan originations and refinance activities, and related fee income opportunities. *Mid Penn could be required to repurchase mortgage loans or indemnify mortgage loan purchasers due to breaches of representations and warranties, borrower fraud, or certain borrower defaults, which could have a material adverse impact on our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition.* Mid Penn originates and sells a significant amount of residential mortgage loans into the secondary market. When Mid Penn sells mortgage loans, Mid Penn is required to make customary representations and warranties to purchasers about the mortgage loans and the manner in which they were originated. The agreements pursuant to which the loans are sold require Mid Penn to repurchase or substitute mortgage loans in the event there was a breach of any of these representations or warranties. In addition, Mid Penn may be required to repurchase mortgage loans as a result of borrower fraud or in the event of early payment default of the borrower on a mortgage loan. If repurchase and indemnity demands increase significantly, Mid Penn’s liquidity, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected. *Mid Penn’s profitability depends significantly on economic conditions in Pennsylvania.* Unlike larger or regional financial institutions that are more geographically diversified, Mid Penn’s success is dependent to a significant degree on economic conditions in Pennsylvania, especially in the twelve counties and the specific markets primarily served by Mid Penn. The banking industry is affected by general economic conditions, including the effects of inflation, recession, unemployment, real estate values, trends in national and global economics, and other factors beyond our control. An economic recession or a delayed recovery over a prolonged period of time in Pennsylvania, or more specific to the counties or communities in Pennsylvania served by Mid Penn, could cause an increase in the level of the Bank’s non-performing assets and loan losses, thereby causing operating losses, impairing liquidity, and eroding capital. Mid Penn cannot assure that adverse changes in the local and state economy supporting its market area would not have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. *Mid Penn is subject to claims and litigation pertaining to fiduciary responsibility.* From time to time, customers may make claims and take legal action pertaining to Mid Penn’s performance of its fiduciary responsibilities. Whether customer claims and legal action related to Mid Penn’s performance of its fiduciary responsibilities are founded or unfounded, if such claims and legal actions are not resolved in a manner favorable to Mid Penn, the claims or related litigation processes may result in significant financial expense and liability, and/or adversely affect the market perception of Mid Penn and its products and services, as well as impact customer demand for those products and services. Any financial liability or reputation damage could have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s business, which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations. *Mid Penn operates in a highly regulated environment and may be adversely affected by changes in federal, state and local laws and regulations.* The Corporation, the Bank, and its nonbank subsidiaries are collectively subject to extensive regulation, supervision and examination by federal and state banking authorities. The potential exists for additional or amended federal or state laws and regulations, or changes in supervisory policies or activities, to materially affect many aspects of Mid Penn’s operations, including capital levels, lending and funding practices, and liquidity standards. New laws and regulations may increase costs of regulatory compliance and of doing business and otherwise affect operations and may significantly affect the markets in which Mid Penn does business, the markets for and value of Mid Penn’s loans and investments, the ability to attract deposits at a reasonable cost, the fees charged, and ongoing operations, costs and profitability. Further, additional legislation and regulations that could significantly affect Mid Penn’s powers, authority and operations may be enacted or adopted in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations. Also, regulators have significant discretion and authority to prevent or remedy unsafe or unsound practices or violations of laws by banks and bank holding companies in the performance of their supervisory and enforcement duties. Any changes in applicable regulations or federal, state or local legislation, or the exercise of bank regulatory authority, may have a negative impact on Mid Penn’s results of operations, financial condition, and its ability to pay dividends on common stock. #### The soundness of other financial institutions may adversely affect Mid Penn. Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty, or other relationships. Mid Penn has exposure to many different industries and counterparties, and routinely executes transactions with counterparties in the financial services industry, including commercial banks, brokers and dealers, investment banks, and other institutional clients. Many of these transactions expose Mid Penn to credit risk and losses in the event of a default by a counterparty or client. Any such losses could have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations. On March 10, 2023, the FDIC took control and was appointed receiver of Silicon Valley Bank ("SVB"), and on March 12, 2023, the FDIC took control and was appointed receiver of Signature Bank, in each case due primarily to liquidity concerns. As of March 13, 2023, Mid Penn did not have any direct exposure to SVB or Signature Bank. However, if other banks and financial institutions enter receivership or become insolvent in the future in response to financial conditions affecting the banking system and financial markets, our ability to access our existing cash, cash equivalents and investments may be threatened and could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition. *Volatility in financial markets and the economy may have materially adverse effects on our liquidity and financial condition.* The capital and credit markets have recently experienced extreme volatility and economic disruption, most recently due to the takeover by the FDIC of both SVB and Signature Bank in March 2023, and, prior to that, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Adverse financial market and economic conditions can exert downward pressure on stock prices, security prices, and credit availability for certain issuers without regard to their underlying financial strength. The volatility resulting from the failures of SVB and Signature Bank has particularly impacted the price of securities issued by financial institutions, including Mid Penn’s. If such levels of financial market and economic disruption and volatility continue, there can be no assurance that Mid Penn will not experience adverse effects, which may materially affect its liquidity, financial condition, and profitability. *Mid Penn’s banking subsidiary may be required to pay higher FDIC insurance premiums or special assessments which may adversely affect its earnings.* Poor economic conditions and the resulting bank failures from the most recent recession stressed the DIF and increased the costs of the Bank’s FDIC insurance assessments. Promptly following the recent failures of SVB and Signature Bank in March 2023, the federal banking regulators announced that the FDIC will use funds from the DIF to ensure that all depositors in SVB and Signature Bank are made whole, at no cost to taxpayers. Mid Penn anticipates that the FDIC will impose special assessments on all banks in order to replenish the DIF. Mid Penn generally is unable to control the amount of premiums or special assessments that its banking subsidiary is required to pay for FDIC insurance. Any special assessments or future changes in the calculation or assessment of FDIC insurance premiums may have a material adverse effect on the results of Mid Penn’s operations and financial condition. *If we conclude that the decline in the value of any of our investment securities is other than temporary, we are required to write down the value of that security through a charge to earnings.* Mid Penn reviews its investment securities portfolio at each quarter-end reporting period to determine whether the fair value of individual securities or the portfolio as a whole is below the current carrying value. When the fair value of any of its investment securities has declined below its carrying value, Mid Penn is required to assess whether the decline is other than temporary. If Mid Penn concludes that the decline is other than temporary, it is required to write down the value of that security through a charge to earnings. Changes in the expected cash flows of these securities and/or prolonged price declines may result in Mid Penn concluding that impairment of these securities is other than temporary, which would require a charge to earnings to write down these securities to their fair value. Due to the complexity of the process, inputs, calculations and assumptions used in determining whether an investment is impaired, Mid Penn’s assessment of or disclosure of the impairment status of investments may not accurately reflect the actual impairment in the future. *Mid Penn is subject to environmental, social and governance ("ESG") risks that could adversely affect our results of operations, reputation, and the market price of our securities.* Mid Penn is subject to a variety of risks arising from ESG matters. ESG matters include environmental and climate change activism, diversity activism, and racial and social justice issues. Such matters may involve our personnel, customers, or third parties with whom we do business. Risks arising from ESG matters may adversely affect, among other things, our reputation and the market price of our securities. Further, Mid Penn may be exposed to negative publicity based on the identity and activities of our shareholders, those to whom we lend and with which we otherwise do business, and the public’s view of the approach and requirements of our state or federal regulators, customers, and business partners with respect to ESG matters. Any such negative publicity could arise through traditional media or electronic social media platforms. Mid Penn’s relationships and reputation with our existing and prospective customers and third parties with which we do business could be damaged if we were to become the subject of any such negative publicity. This, in turn, could have an adverse effect on Mid Penn’s ability to attract and retain customers and employees and could have a negative impact on the market price for our securities. Certain investors have begun to consider the steps taken and resources allocated by financial institutions and other commercial organizations with respect to ESG matters when making investment decisions. Certain investors are beginning to incorporate the business risks of ESG regulation and activism and the adequacy of companies’ responses to these into their investment decisions. These shifts in investing priorities may result in adverse effects on the market price of Mid Penn’s securities. The U.S. Congress, state legislatures and federal and state regulatory agencies, as well as certain stock exchanges, continue to propose numerous initiatives related to ESG matters. Similar and even more expansive initiatives are expected under the current administration, including potentially increasing supervisory expectations with respect to banks’ risk management practices, accounting practices, and credit portfolio concentrations management practices. The lack of empirical data surrounding the credit and other financial risks posed by ESG regulation and activism render it impossible to predict how specifically ESG matters may impact Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations. Federal and state banking regulators and supervisory authorities, investors and other stakeholders have increasingly viewed financial institutions as a tool to effect ESG activism, both directly and with respect to their customers, which may result in financial institutions coming under increased pressure regarding the disclosure and management of ESG matters. Given that ESG matters could impose systemic risks upon the financial sector, either via disruptions in economic activity resulting from activism, Mid Penn faces increasing focus on our resilience to ESG risks. Ongoing legislative or regulatory uncertainties and changes regarding ESG risk management and practices may result in higher regulatory, compliance, credit and reputational risks and costs. *Mid Penn is subject to environmental liability risk associated with lending activities.* A significant portion of Mid Penn’s loan portfolio is secured by real property. During the ordinary course of business, Mid Penn may foreclose on and take title to properties securing certain loans. In doing so, there is a risk that hazardous or toxic substances could be found on these properties. If hazardous or toxic substances are found, Mid Penn may be liable for remediation costs, as well as for personal injury and property damage. Environmental laws may require Mid Penn to incur substantial expenses and may materially reduce the affected property’s value or limit Mid Penn’s ability to use or sell the affected property. In addition, future laws or more stringent interpretations or enforcement policies with respect to existing laws may increase Mid Penn’s exposure to environmental liability. Although Mid Penn has policies and procedures to perform an environmental review before initiating any foreclosure action on real property, these reviews may not be sufficient to detect all potential environmental hazards. The remediation costs and any other financial liabilities associated with an environmental hazard could have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations. *Mid Penn’s financial performance may suffer if its information technology is unable to keep pace with its growth or industry developments.* Effective and competitive delivery of Mid Penn’s products and services is increasingly dependent upon information technology resources and processes provided both internally and through third party vendors. In addition to better serving customers, the effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables Mid Penn to reduce costs. Mid Penn’s future success will depend, in part, upon its ability to address the needs of its customers by effectively and safely using technology to provide products and services to enhance customer convenience, attract customers who prefer technological delivery channels, and to create additional efficiencies in its operations. Many of Mid Penn’s competitors have greater resources to invest in technological improvements and infrastructure. Additionally, as technology and information security requirements in the financial services industry change and evolve, keeping pace becomes increasingly complex and expensive for Mid Penn. There can be no assurance that Mid Penn will be able to effectively keep pace with these technological advancements or the related substantial costs and investments required, which could adversely affect its financial condition and results of operations. *Growing by acquisition entails certain risks, and difficulties in integrating past or future acquisitions could adversely affect our business.* On December 20, 2022, Mid Penn announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement to acquire Brunswick Bancorp and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Brunswick Bank & Trust Company, and Mid Penn has completed three other merger acquisitions in recent years (The Scottdale Bank & Trust Company and First Priority Financial Corp. in 2018 and Riverview Financial Corporation on November 30, 2021). Growth by acquisition involves substantial risks, as the ultimate success of such acquisitions may depend on, among other things, the ability to realize anticipated cost savings and to integrate the acquired companies and operation in a manner that does not result in decreased revenues. Excessive acquisition costs, conversion costs and the disruption of existing customer relationships in both the acquired companies and legacy markets may occur. If we are not able to successfully achieve the financial efficiencies or integration and growth objectives of acquisitions, the anticipated benefits of an acquisition may not be realized fully, or at all, or may take longer to realize than planned. Further, the asset quality or other financial characteristics of an acquired company may deteriorate from the date a merger or other acquisition agreement is entered into and when the transaction is completed or the post-merger period. Mid Penn has spent and may continue to spend significant resources identifying companies and businesses to acquire. The efficient and effective integration of any companies and businesses we acquire and integrate into our organization is critical to our growth. The recent Scottdale, First Priority, and Riverview mergers, the pending Brunswick Bancorp acquisition, and any future mergers or acquisitions, involve numerous risks including difficulties in integrating the culture, operations, technologies and personnel of the acquired companies, the diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns and the potential loss of customers. Failure to fully integrate the operations of any acquired business successfully, or to integrate the operations of future acquisition targets, could harm Mid Penn’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. *We plan to pursue a growth strategy and there are risks associated with rapid growth.* We intend to pursue a growth plan consistent with our prior business strategy, including growth by acquisition, as well as leveraging our existing branch network or adding new branch locations or offices and personnel in current and adjacent markets we choose to serve. The Scottdale, First Priority, and Riverview mergers and pending Brunswick Bancorp acquisition are reflective of our growth strategy. Our ability to manage growth successfully will depend on our ability to attract or retain qualified personnel, maintain cost controls and efficiencies, and ensure our areas of growth continue to meet our high asset quality standards, while attracting additional loans and deposits on favorable terms, as well as on factors beyond our control, such as economic conditions and competition in existing and new markets. If we grow too quickly and are not able to attract qualified personnel, control costs and maintain asset quality, this continued rapid growth could materially adversely affect our financial performance. #### The value of our goodwill and other intangible assets may decline in the future. As of December 31, 2022, we had $114.2 million of goodwill and $7.2 million of other intangible assets. A significant decline in our expected future cash flows, a significant adverse change in the business climate, slower economic growth or a significant and sustained decline in the price of our common stock, any or all of which could be materially impacted by many of the risk factors discussed herein, may necessitate our taking charges in the future related to the impairment of our goodwill. Future regulatory actions could also have a material impact on assessments of goodwill for impairment. If we were to conclude that a future write-down of our goodwill is necessary, we would record the appropriate charge, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Identifiable intangible assets other than goodwill consist of core deposit intangibles, books of business, and other intangible assets. Adverse events or circumstances could impact the recoverability of these intangible assets including loss of core deposits, significant losses of customer accounts and/or balances, increased competition or adverse changes in the economy. To the extent these intangible assets are deemed unrecoverable, a non-cash impairment charge would be recorded, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. ### Risks Related to Mid Penn Common Stock *The trading volume in Mid Penn’s common stock is less than that of other larger financial services companies.* Mid Penn’s common stock is listed for trading on NASDAQ (symbol: MPB); however, the trading volume in its common stock is less than that of other larger financial services companies. A public trading market having the desired characteristics of depth, liquidity and orderliness depends on the presence in the marketplace of willing buyers and sellers of Mid Penn’s common stock at any given time. This presence depends on the individual decisions of investors and general economic and market conditions over which Mid Penn has no control. Given the generally lower trading volume of Mid Penn’s common stock, significant sales of Mid Penn’s common stock, or the expectation of these sales, could cause Mid Penn’s stock price to fall. *The market price of Mid Penn common stock may fluctuate significantly, and this may make it difficult for investors to resell shares of common stock owned by them at times or at prices they find attractive.* The market price of our common stock as reported on NASDAQ is subject to constant change during business trading hours. We expect that the market price of Mid Penn common stock will continue to fluctuate and there can be no assurance about the stability or trend of market prices for Mid Penn common stock. Stock price volatility, particularly with a stock like ours with lower trading volumes than larger financial services companies, may make it difficult for investors to resell their Mid Penn common stock when they want and at times or prices that they find attractive. Mid Penn’s stock price may fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include those described elsewhere in this entire "Risk Factors" section, in this document, and our other filings with the SEC. *Mid Penn’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock, and principal and interest on its subordinated notes, depends primarily on dividends from its banking subsidiary, which is subject to regulatory limits.* Mid Penn is a bank holding company and its operations are conducted primarily by its banking subsidiary. Mid Penn’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock, and principal and interest on its subordinated notes, depends on its receipt of dividends from the Bank. Dividend payments from its banking subsidiary are subject to legal and regulatory limitations, generally based on net profits and retained earnings, imposed by the respective regulatory agencies that supervise the Bank. The ability of the Bank to pay dividends is also subject to profitability, financial condition, liquidity, and capital management limits. There is no assurance that Mid Penn’s banking subsidiary or other subsidiaries established in the future will be able to pay dividends, or that Mid Penn itself will generate adequate cash flow to pay dividends in the future. Federal Reserve policy, which applies to Mid Penn as a registered bank holding company, also provides that dividends by bank holding companies should generally be paid out of earnings from both the current period and a designated look-back period. Mid Penn’s ability to pay dividends on its common stock, or the amount of any dividends paid, could have a material adverse effect on the market price of its common stock. *Mid Penn may need to, or be required to, raise additional capital in the future, and capital may not be available when needed and on terms favorable to current stockholders.* Federal banking regulators require the Corporation and the Bank to maintain adequate levels of capital to support their operations. These capital levels are determined and dictated by law, regulation, and banking regulatory agencies. In addition, capital levels are also determined by Mid Penn’s management and board of directors, based on capital levels that they believe are necessary to support Mid Penn’s business operations. If Mid Penn raises capital through merger and acquisition activities, or through the issuance of additional shares of its common stock or other securities, it would likely dilute the ownership interests of current investors and could dilute the per share book value and earnings per share of its common stock. Furthermore, a capital raise through issuance of additional shares may have an adverse impact on Mid Penn’s stock price. New investors also may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to Mid Penn’s current common stockholders, which may adversely impact its current common stockholders. Mid Penn’s ability to raise additional capital will depend on conditions in the capital markets at that time, which are outside of its control, and on its financial performance. Accordingly, Mid Penn cannot be certain of its ability to raise additional capital on acceptable terms and acceptable time frames or to raise additional capital at all. If Mid Penn cannot raise additional capital in sufficient amounts when needed, its ability to comply with regulatory capital requirements could be materially impaired. Additionally, the inability to raise capital in sufficient amounts may adversely affect Mid Penn’s financial condition and results of operations. *Offerings of debt, which would be senior to Mid Penn’s common stock upon liquidation, and/or preferred equity securities which may be senior to our common stock for purposes of dividend distributions or upon liquidation, may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.* Mid Penn may attempt to increase its capital resources if the Corporation’s or the Bank’s capital ratios fall below the required minimums. The Corporation or the Bank could be required to raise additional capital by making additional offerings of debt or preferred equity securities, including medium-term notes, senior or subordinated notes and preferred stock. If a future liquidation of Mid Penn occurs, holders of debt securities and shares of preferred stock and lenders with respect to other borrowings are likely to receive distributions of available assets prior to the holders of our common stock. Additional equity offerings may dilute the holdings of existing shareholders or reduce the market price of our common stock, or both. Holders of Mid Penn common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights or other protections against dilution. Also, Mid Penn’s board of directors is authorized to issue one or more classes or series of preferred stock from time to time without any action on the part of the shareholders. The board of directors also has the power, without shareholder approval, to set the terms of any such classes or series of preferred stock that may be issued, including voting rights, dividend rights, and preferences over common stock with respect to dividends or upon our dissolution, winding up and liquidation and other terms. If Mid Penn issues preferred stock in the future that has a preference over its common stock with respect to the payment of dividends or upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or if preferred stock is issued with voting rights that dilute the voting power of common stock, the rights of holders of Mid Penn’s common stock or the market price of the common stock could be adversely affected. *Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law and various anti-takeover provisions under our articles of incorporation and bylaws could impede the takeover of Mid Penn.* Various Pennsylvania laws affecting business corporations may have the effect of discouraging offers to acquire Mid Penn, even if the acquisition would be advantageous to shareholders. In addition, Mid Penn has various anti-takeover measures in place under its articles of incorporation and bylaws, including a supermajority vote requirement for mergers, the staggered election of Mid Penn’s board of directors, and the absence of cumulative voting. Any one or more of these laws or measures may impede the takeover of Mid Penn and may prevent its shareholders from taking part in a transaction in which they could realize a premium over the current market price of its common stock. #### Mid Penn’s common stock is not insured by any governmental entity. Although Mid Penn and the Bank are regulated by governmental agencies, Mid Penn common stock is not a deposit account or other obligation of the Bank or any other bank and, therefore, is not insured against loss by the FDIC, any other deposit insurance fund, any other governmental entity or by any other public or private entity. Investment in Mid Penn common stock is inherently risky for the reasons described elsewhere in this "Risk Factors" section, in this document, and our other filings with the SEC. Mid Penn common stock is also subject to the same market forces that affect the price of common stock in any other publicly traded company. As a result, investors who acquire Mid Penn common stock may lose some or all of their investment. ### General Risk Factors #### Mid Penn’s controls and procedures may fail or be circumvented. Management maintains Mid Penn’s internal controls, disclosure controls and procedures, and corporate governance policies and procedures, and periodically reviews and updates them. Any system of controls, however well designed and operated, is based in part on performance by personnel or certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the system are met. Any failure or circumvention of Mid Penn’s controls and procedures or failure to comply with regulations related to controls and procedures could have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. #### Mid Penn may not be able to attract and retain skilled personnel. Mid Penn’s success depends, in large part, on its ability to attract and retain qualified, key personnel. Competition for the best personnel in most activities engaged in by Mid Penn can be intense, and Mid Penn may not be able to hire or retain them. The unexpected loss of services of one or more of Mid Penn’s key personnel could have a material adverse impact on Mid Penn’s business because of their skills, knowledge of Mid Penn’s market, years of industry experience, and the difficulty of promptly finding qualified replacement personnel. ## Properties As filed, 1,082 characters.

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations analyzes the major elements of Mid Penn’s Consolidated Financial Statements from the view of management and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Corporation and Notes thereto and other detailed information appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The comparability of the results of operations for the year ended 2022, compared to 2021 and 2020, in general, have been materially impacted by the Riverview Acquisition, which closed on November 30, 2021. For comparative purposes, some 2021 and 2020 balances have been reclassified to conform to the 2022 presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on net income available to common shareholders or shareholders’ equity. Mid Penn is not aware of any current trends, events, uncertainties or any current recommendations by the regulatory authorities which, if they were to be implemented, would have a material effect on Mid Penn’s or the Bank’s liquidity, capital resources, or operations. #### Executive Overview Mid Penn is a financial holding company incorporated in August 1991 in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Mid Penn generates the majority of its revenues through net interest income, or the difference between interest earned on loans and investments and interest paid on deposits and borrowings. Growth in net interest income is dependent upon balance sheet growth and maintaining or increasing the net interest margin, which is fully taxable-equivalent basis ("FTE") net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The Corporation also generates revenue through fees earned on the various services and products offered to its customers and through gains on sales of assets, such as loans, investments and properties. Offsetting these revenue sources are provisions for loan losses, non-interest expenses and income taxes. The following table presents a summary of the Corporation's earnings and selected performance ratios: | | December 31, 2022 | 2021 | 2020 | | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | | Net Income | $54,806 | $29,319 | $26,209 | | Diluted EPS | $3.44 | $2.71 | $3.10 | | Dividends Declared | $0.80 | $0.79 | $0.82 | | Return on average assets | 1.22% | 0.83% | 0.95% | | Return on average equity | 10.98% | 8.91% | 8.57% | | Net interest margin (1) | 3.59% | 3.30% | 3.48% | | Non-performing assets to total assets | 0.21% | 0.22% | 0.52% | | Net charge-off to average loans | (0.002)% | 0.068% | 0.015% | (1) Presented on a FTE basis using a 21% Federal tax rate and statutory interest expense disallowances. See also the "Net Interest Income" section. #### Financial Highlights - *Net Income Per Share -* Mid Penn’s net income available to common shareholders ("earnings") for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $54.8 million or $3.44 per common share basic and diluted, compared to earnings of $29.3 million or $2.71 per common share basic and diluted for the year ended December 31, 2021. The results for the year ended December 31, 2022 were favorably impacted by loan growth, an increase in net interest margin, noninterest income growth and the Riverview Acquisition. The year ended December 31, 2022 included the recognition of $3.8 million of Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loan processing fees generated as a result of Mid Penn’s participation in the PPP compared to $22.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. These PPP fees are recognized into interest income over the term of the respective loan, or sooner if the loans are forgiven by the Small Business Administration or the borrowers otherwise pay down principal prior to a loan’s stated maturity. The year ended December 31, 2021 also include merger and acquisition expenses of $3.1 million and post-acquisition restructuring expenses totaling $9.9 million resulting from the Riverview Acquisition, which was announced on June 30, 2021 and legally closed on November 30, 2021. - *Net Interest Income* - *Net Interest Margin* - For the year ended December 31, 2022, Mid Penn’s FTE net interest margin was 3.59% versus 3.30% for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Federal Reserve’s Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") increased rates seven times during 2022. The yield on interest-earning assets increased 28 basis point(s) ("bp") in 2022 compared to 2021 and the rate on interest-bearing liabilities decreased 3 bp in 2022 compared to 2021. - *Loan Growth -* Total loans, net of unearned income, as of December 31, 2022 were $3.5 billion compared to $3.1 billion as of December 31, 2021, an increase of $409.7 million, or 13.2%. The loan growth occurred primarily within Mid Penn’s commercial real estate loan portfolio. - *Deposit Growth -* Total deposits decreased $223.7 million, or 5.6%, from $4.0 billion at December 31, 2021, to $3.8 billion at December 31, 2022. The decrease in total deposits was primarily due to the strategic decision to allow higher cost time deposits obtained through the Riverview Acquisition to run-off during the year. - *Asset Quality -* Mid Penn’s allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2022 was $19.0 million, or 0.54% of total loans, as compared to $14.6 million, or 0.47% of total loans at December 31, 2021. - *Net Recoveries/Charge-offs* - Mid Penn had net loan recoveries of $60 thousand and net loan charge-offs of $1.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. - *Non-performing assets* - Total non-performing assets were $9.3 million at December 31, 2022, a decrease compared to non-performing assets of $10.5 million at December 31, 2021. - *Provision for loan losses* - The provision for loan losses was $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily the result of loan growth. - *Noninterest Income* - Noninterest income totaled $23.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, a $2.1 million, or 9.9%, increase compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. The growth was primarily attributable to the Riverview Acquisition. - *Noninterest Expense* - Noninterest expense totaled $99.8 million, an increase of $8.7 million, or 9.6%, compared to noninterest expense of $91.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Most noninterest expense items increased primarily as a result of the Riverview Acquisition. - *Borrowings paid downs* - During 2022, Mid Penn paid off $76.8 million of long-term debt and redeemed a total of $16.8 million of subordinated debt and trust preferred securities. - *Share Repurchases* - Mid Penn repurchased 109,891 shares during 2022 at an average price per share of $26.91 under its share repurchase program. - *Business Combinations* - As announced on Form 8-K filed on December 20, 2022, Mid Penn entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Brunswick Bancorp, pursuant to which Brunswick will merge with and into Mid Penn, with Mid Penn being the surviving corporation in the Merger. This transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2023. - On December 30, 2022, Mid Penn purchased the assets, in a business combination, of Managing Partners, Inc., an independent insurance agency that serviced the Central Pennsylvania area. #### Critical Accounting Estimates Mid Penn’s Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and conform to general practices within the banking industry. Application of certain principles involves significant judgments and estimates by management that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities. The judgments and estimates used in applying these principles are based on historical experiences and other factors which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and estimates that have been made, actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates, which could have a material impact on the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported results of operations. Management of the Corporation considers the accounting judgments relating to the allowance for loan losses to be the accounting area that requires the most subjective and complex judgments. Allowance for loan losses ("allowance") - The allowance represents management’s estimate of probable incurred credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires significant judgment and the use of quantitative estimates related to the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans based on historical loss experience adjusted for subjectively determined qualitative factors, and consideration of current economic trends and conditions, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The loan portfolio also represents the largest asset type on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The allowance includes qualitative adjustments, as appropriate, intended to capture the impact of uncertainties not reflected in the quantitative models. Qualitative adjustments include and consider changes in national, regional and local economic and business conditions, an assessment of the lending environment, including underwriting standards and other factors affecting credit quality and inherent risks in the loan portfolio. It should be noted that this evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates, including, among others, expected default probabilities, the amounts and timing of expected cash flows on impaired loans and leases, the value of collateral, estimated losses on consumer loans and residential mortgages and the relevance of historical loss experience. All of these factors may be susceptible to significant change. While management uses the best information known to it in order to make loan loss allowance valuations, adjustments to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic and other conditions, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, or changes in accounting guidance. In times of economic slowdown, either local,regional or national, the risk inherent in the loan portfolio could increase resulting in the need for additional provisions to the allowance for loan losses in future periods. An increase could also be necessitated by an increase in the size of the loan portfolio or in any of its components even though the credit quality of the overall portfolio may be improving. Historically, the estimates of the allowance for loan losses have provided adequate coverage against actual losses incurred. The allowance for loan losses was $19.0 million as of December 31, 2022, an increase of $4.4 million, or 29.9%, compared to $14.6 million as of December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily the result of loan growth during 2022. ### Results of Operations ### Net Interest Income Net interest income, Mid Penn's primary source of earnings, represents the difference between interest income received on loans, investments, and overnight funds, and interest expense paid on deposits and short- and long-term borrowings. Net interest income is affected by changes in interest rates and changes in average balances (volume) in the various interest-sensitive assets and liabilities. Interest and average rates in the table below are presented on a fully taxable-equivalent basis ("FTE"). Tax-equivalent adjustments were calculated using a statutory corporate tax rate of 21% for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020. For purposes of calculating loan yields, average loan balances include non-accrual loans. Loan fees of $8.4 million, $25.5 million and $15.8 million are included with loan interest income in the following table for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, Mid Penn recognized $3.8 million, $22.0 million and $13.1 million of PPP fees, respectively, which are included in loan fees.

Tax-exempt income is shown on a tax equivalent basis using a statutory corporate tax rate of 21% for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020. For the year ended December 31, 2022, Mid Penn’s FTE net interest margin was 3.59% versus 3.30% for the year ended December 31, 2021 and 3.48% for the year ended December 31, 2020. During 2022, FTE net interest income increased $39.4 million, or 36.1%, compared to 2021. Interest income increased $38.7 million as the result of a $955.7 million, or 27.1%, increase in average interest-earning assets in 2022 compared to 2021 and increased $3.8 million as the result of a 28 bp increase in the yield on interest-earning assets in 2022 compared to 2021. The growth in average interest-earning assets and average interest-bearing liabilities was primarily the result of the the Riverview Acquisition. The increase in the yield on interest-earning assets was the result of a combination of excess cash being re-deployed into higher yielding loans and investment securities and the increases in the federal fund rates during 2022. The FOMC has increased rates seven times during 2022. Average total loans, net, increased $678.2 million, or 26.7%, contributing $31.8 million to the increase in interest income. The yield on average total loans, net, decreased from 4.69% for 2021 to 4.68% for 2022. The slight decrease in the yield was the result of the recognition of $22.0 million of PPP loan processing fees generated in 2021 compared to $3.8 million received in 2022, which were included in FTE interest income, mostly offset by increases as of result of the higher interest rate environment during 2022. The PPP loan processing fees were a result of Mid Penn’s participation in the PPP, and are recognized into interest income over the term of the respective loan (most have a 24-month maturity), or sooner if the loans are forgiven by the Small Business Administration ("SBA") or the borrowers otherwise pay down principal prior to a loan’s stated maturity. Total average investment securities increased $396.1 million, contributing $7.3 million to the increase in FTE interest income, the average yield investment securities increased 33 bps, contributing $2.6 million to the increase in FTE interest income. Interest expense for 2022 increased by $3.0 million or 20.4% when compared to 2021. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 0.58% in 2022 from 0.60% in 2021 and 0.99% in 2020. The rate on total interest-bearing deposits decreased to 0.48% in 2022 from 0.51% in 2021 and 0.92% in 2020. The 3 bp decrease in the rate on interest-bearing liabilities was primarily a result of a lag in the repricing of deposits early in the year, as well as the strategic decision to allow higher cost time deposits obtained through the Riverview Acquisition to run-off, partially offset by an increase of $3.0 million in interest expense due to the $772.0 million, or 35.1%, increase in interest-bearing deposits compared to the same period of 2021. Although the effective interest rate impact on interest-earning assets and funding sources can be reasonably estimated at current interest rate levels, the interest-bearing product and pricing options selected by customers, and the future mix of the loan, investment, and deposit products in the Bank's portfolios, may significantly change the estimates used in Mid Penn’s asset and liability management and related interest rate risk simulation models. In addition, our net interest income may be impacted by further interest rate actions of the Federal Reserve’s FOMC. ### Provision for Loan Losses The provision for loan losses is the expense necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level adequate to absorb management’s estimate of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Mid Penn’s provision for loan losses is based upon management’s monthly reviews of the loan portfolio throughout the year. The purpose of the monthly reviews is to assess loan quality, identify impaired loans, analyze delinquencies, ascertain loan growth, evaluate actual and potential charge-offs and recoveries, assess general economic conditions in the markets we serve, and determine appropriate loan loss provisions to maintain an adequate allowance. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the provision for loan losses was $4.3 million, an increase of 46.0% compared to a provision for loan losses of $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The provision for loan losses for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $1.3 million, or 29.9%, lower than the $4.2 million provision for loan losses for the year ended December 31, 2020. The allowance for loan losses and the related provision reflect Mid Penn’s continued application of the incurred loss method for estimating credit losses as Mid Penn was not required to adopt the current expected credit loss ("CECL") accounting standard, until January 1, 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2022, Mid Penn had net recoveries of $60 thousand compared to net charge-offs of $1.7 million and $333 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. A summary of charge-offs and recoveries of loans and the provision for loan losses is shown in the table below. Mid Penn expects an increase to the allowance for credit losses ("ACL"), including the reserves for unfunded commitments, is probable to the total credit loss reserve as of December 31, 2022 upon adoption of CECL on January 1, 2023. The one-time increase will be recorded, net of tax, as an adjustment to retained earnings effective January 1, 2023. The following table represents the analysis of the allowance for loan losses: *(In Thousands)* | | Years ended December 31, 2022 | 2021 | 2020 | | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | | Balance, beginning of year | **$14,597** | $13,382 | $9,515 | | Loans charged off: | | | | | Commercial and industrial | **1** | 866 | 45 | | Commercial real estate | **7** | 1,044 | 258 | | Commercial real estate - construction | **—** | 23 | 7 | | Residential mortgage | **25** | 13 | 4 | | Home equity | **1** | — | 58 | | Consumer | **97** | 42 | — | | Total loans charged off | **131** | 1,988 | 372 | | Recoveries on loans previously charged off: | | | | | Commercial and industrial | **13** | 13 | 3 | | Commercial real estate | **128** | 207 | 1 | | Commercial real estate - construction | **24** | 8 | 2 | | Residential mortgage | **2** | 11 | 3 | | Home equity | **2** | — | 3 | | Consumer | **22** | 19 | 27 | | Total loans recovered | **191** | 258 | 39 | | Net (recoveries) charge-offs | **(60)** | 1,730 | 333 | | Provision for loan losses | **4,300** | 2,945 | 4,200 | | Balance, end of year | **$18,957** | $14,597 | $13,382 | | Net (recoveries) charge-offs to average loans | **(0.002)%** | 0.068% | 0.015% | 35 Noninterest income and variance analysis as of December 31: *(Dollars in thousands)* | | Years Ended December 31, 2022 | 2021 | 2020 | $ Variance 2022 vs. 2021 | % Variance 2022 vs. 2021 | | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | | Income from fiduciary and wealth management activities | **$5,071** | $2,494 | $1,694 | $2,577 | 103.3% | | ATM debit card interchange income | **4,362** | 2,688 | 1,960 | 1,674 | 62.3 | | Service charges on deposits | **2,078** | 991 | 637 | 1,087 | 109.7 | | Mortgage banking income | **1,607** | 10,314 | 9,682 | (8,707) | (84.4) | | Mortgage hedging income | **1,471** | 64 | 167 | 1,407 | N/M | | Net gain on sales of SBA loans | **262** | 969 | 442 | (707) | (73.0) | | Earnings from cash surrender value of life insurance | **1,013** | 358 | 301 | 655 | 183.0 | | Net gain on sales of investment activities | **—** | 79 | 467 | (79) | (100.0) | | Other income | **7,793** | 3,576 | 2,558 | 4,217 | 117.9 | | **Total Noninterest Income** | **$23,657** | $21,533 | $17,908 | $2,124 | 9.9% | N/M - Not Meaningful For the year ended December 31, 2022, noninterest income totaled $23.7 million, an increase of $2.1 million or 9.9%, compared to noninterest income of $21.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Income from fiduciary and wealth management activities, ATM debit card interchange income, service charges on deposits and earnings from cash surrender value of life insurance increased primarily as a result of the Riverview Acquisition. In addition to increases as a result of the Riverview Acquisition, growth in income from fiduciary and wealth management activities was attributable to favorable increases in trust assets under management and increased sales of retail investment products. Mortgage banking income decreased $8.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. Mortgage loan originations and secondary-market loan sales and gains slowed during 2022 as a result of increases in interest rates. As a result of mortgage rate increases and an increase in property values driven by supply shortfalls and high liquidity levels among buyers, the mortgage loan refinancing market slowed and purchase money mortgage originations have slowed relative to the lending volumes experienced during 2021. Mortgage hedging income was $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $64 thousand for the same period in 2021. The increase was the result of a hedging program related to mortgage derivative activities that Mid Penn did not participate in during the majority of 2021. Other income increased $4.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in other income was primarily driven by activities related to the Riverview Acquisition, increases in insurance commissions and higher volumes of letter of credit fees. For details on the variances of noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020 refer to the "Noninterest Income" section of the Management's Discussion and Analysis in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Most noninterest expense items increased primarily as a result of the Riverview Acquisition as discussed in further detail below. Salaries and employee benefits were $52.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $10.9 million, or 26.1%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was attributable to the retail staff additions at the seven retail locations added through the Riverview Acquisition, the retention of various Riverview team members through the completion of the systems integration, which occurred on March 4, 2022, and the addition of wealth management professionals, commercial lending professionals, and other staff additions in alignment with Mid Penn’s core banking and non-banking growth initiatives. Software licensing and utilization costs were $7.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $1.2 million, or 18.8%, compared to $6.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase is a result of additional costs to license the additional Riverview branches, upgrades to internal systems, networks, storage capabilities, cybersecurity management, and data security mechanisms to enhance data management and security capabilities responsive to both the larger company profile and the increasing complexity of information technology management, and increases in certain core processing fees as our customer base and transaction volume continue to grow. Both occupancy and equipment expenses increased $1.4 million, or 24.8% and 44.9%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. The increases were driven by the facility operating costs and increased depreciation expense for building, furniture, and equipment, respectively, associated with the Riverview Acquisition. Shares tax totaled $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, a $2.0 million increase compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 due to the increase in shareholders' equity, primarily a result of a stock offering completed in 2021 and the Riverview Acquisition. ATM/card processing expenses were $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $1.1 million as a result of an increase in transaction volume resulting from the accounts assumed in the Riverview Acquisition. Intangible amortization increased from $1.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2021 to $2.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2022 as a result of the customer list and core deposit intangible assets added from the Riverview Acquisition. For the year ended December 31, 2021, merger and acquisition expenses were $3.1 million and included investment banking fees, merger-related legal expenses, and other professional fees for advisory, valuation, and consulting services associated with the Riverview Acquisition. Similar expenses totaling $294 thousand were incurred during the year ended December 31, 2022 related to the MPI Acquisition and the announcement of the Brunswick Bancorp Acquisition. For additional information on these two acquisitions, see "Note 2 - Business Combinations", within Item 8, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Post-acquisition and restructuring expenses were $9.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to $329 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2022. The total of these expenses during 2022 primarily consisted of contract termination fees related to the Riverview Acquisition. The total of these expenses during 2021 was comprised of $7.6 million of termination fees and severance costs, and $2.3 million related to the December 7, 2021 announcement of a Retail Network Optimization Plan under which the Bank announced its intention to close 16 of its retail locations throughout its expanded footprint. The branch closures occurred on or about March 4, 2022. As a result of this announcement, and in accordance with GAAP, Mid Penn reclassified the assets associated with these retail locations to held for sale totaling $3.9 million as of December 31, 2021. Other expenses increased $4.7 million from $10.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, to $15.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. Several categories within other expense increased primarily as a result of the Riverview Acquisition and also organic growth, including marketing, telephone, postage, courier, payroll processing, employee travel costs, and director fees. In addition, the year ended December 31, 2022 contained an impaired asset write-off of $664 thousand, representing the disposal of certain fixed assets and leasehold improvements from Riverview offices not being retained. For details on the variances of noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020 refer to the "Noninterest Expense" section of the Management's Discussion and Analysis in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. ### Income Taxes The provision for income taxes was $12.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $5.8 million compared to $6.7 million for the same period in 2021. The provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2022 reflects an effective combined Federal and state tax rate ("ETR") of 18.6%, compared to an ETR of 18.7% for the year ended December 31, 2021. The ETR is generally lower than the federal statutory rate of 21% due to tax-exempt interest income earned on tax-free municipal securities, loans, and the impact of certain merger-related expenses which are nondeductible for Federal tax purposes. ### Financial Condition Mid Penn’s total assets were $4.5 billion as of December 31, 2022, reflecting a decrease of $191.5 million, or 4.1%, compared to total assets of $4.7 billion as of December 31, 2021. Included in total assets as of December 31, 2022 are $2.6 million of PPP loans, net of deferred fees. Comparatively, as of December 31, 2021, Mid Penn had $111.3 million of PPP loans outstanding, net of deferred fees. ### Investment Securities Mid Penn’s portfolio of held-to-maturity ("HTM") securities, recorded at amortized cost, increased $70.2 million to $399.5 million as of December 31, 2022, as compared to $329.3 million as of December 31, 2021. Mid Penn’s total available-for-sale ("AFS") securities portfolio increased $175.0 million from $62.9 million at December 31, 2021 to $237.9 million at December 31, 2022. During 2022, Mid Penn re-deployed excess cash into higher yielding investment securities and also increased its investment securities for both strategic portfolio and asset liability management objectives. At December 31, 2022, the unrealized loss on AFS investment securities resulted in a decrease in shareholders’ equity of $19.1 million (comprised of a gross unrealized loss on securities of $24.1 million net of a deferred income tax benefit of $5.1 million). At December 31, 2021, the unrealized loss on AFS investment securities resulted in a decrease in shareholders’ equity of $254 thousand (comprised of a gross unrealized loss on securities of $322 thousand net of a deferred income tax benefit of $68 thousand). Mid Penn does not have any significant concentrations of non-governmental securities within its investment portfolio. Mid Penn’s investment portfolio is utilized primarily to support overall liquidity and interest rate risk management, to provide collateral supporting pledging requirements for public funds on deposit, and to generate additional interest income within reasonable risk parameters. Mid Penn’s investment portfolio includes both held-to-maturity securities and available-for-sale securities. The following table presents the expected maturities of the investment portfolio and the weighted average yields (calculated based on historical cost) as of December 31, 2022: *(In Thousands)* | As of December 31, 2022 Available for sale securities, at fair value: | Maturing One Year and Less Amount | Yield | After One Year thru Five Years Amount | Yield | After Five Years Thru Ten Years Amount | Yield | After Ten Years Amount | Yield | | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | | U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agencies | $— | —% | $28,057 | 2.99% | $6,857 | 3.00% | $— | —% | | Mortgage-backed U.S. government agencies | — | —% | — | —% | $5,627 | 2.52% | $161,288 | 3.02% | | State and political subdivision obligations | — | —% | — | —% | 1,247 | 2.21% | 2,292 | 2.52% | | Corporate debt securities | 250 | 1.50% | 11,808 | 4.59% | 20,452 | 4.43% | — | — | | | $250 | 1.50% | $39,865 | 3.46% | $34,183 | 3.75% | $163,580 | 3.01% | | Held to maturity securities, at amortized cost: | | | | | | | | | | U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agencies | $— | —% | $51,578 | 2.31% | $172,194 | 1.98% | $21,899 | 2.18% | | Mortgage-backed U.S. government agencies | — | —% | 1,648 | 3.02% | 10,760 | 2.83% | 38,302 | 1.97% | | State and political subdivision obligations | 2,745 | 2.27% | 31,560 | 2.56% | 31,334 | 2.21% | 21,486 | 2.54% | | Corporate debt securities | 1,000 | 2.89% | 4,046 | 2.92% | 10,942 | 3.19% | — | —% | | | $3,745 | 2.44% | $88,832 | 2.44% | $225,230 | 2.11% | $81,687 | 2.17% | 39 ### Loans The following table presents the ending balance of loans outstanding, by type, as of December 31: *(Dollars in thousands)* | | 2022 Balance | % of Total Loans | 2021 Balance | % of Total Loans | Change in Balance $% | | | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | | Commercial and industrial | **$596,042** | **17.0%** | $619,562 | 20.0% | $(23,520) | (3.8)% | | Commercial real estate | **2,052,934** | **58.3** | 1,668,142 | 53.5 | 384,792 | 23.1 | | Commercial real estate - construction | **441,246** | **12.6** | 372,734 | 12.0 | 68,512 | 18.4 | | Residential mortgage | **305,386** | **8.7** | 323,223 | 10.4 | (17,837) | (5.5) | | Home equity | **110,835** | **3.2** | 110,306 | 3.6 | 529 | 0.5 | | Consumer | **7,676** | **0.2** | 10,429 | 0.5 | (2,753) | (26.4) | | | **$3,514,119** | **100.0%** | $3,104,396 | 100.0% | $409,723 | 13.2% | Total loans, net of unearned income, as of December 31, 2022 were $3.5 billion compared to $3.1 billion as of December 31, 2021, an increase of $409.7 million. The $23.5 million, or 3.8%, decrease in commercial and industrial loans was the result of PPP loan forgiveness partially offset by organic growth. Commercial real estate loans totaled $2.5 billion as of December 31, 2022, a 22.2% increase compared to $2.0 billion as of December 31, 2021. Residential mortgage and consumer loan categories both experienced a decrease in demand in 2022 as rates and housing costs increased. The majority of the Bank's loan portfolio is to businesses and individuals located within the Bank's primary market area of the Pennsylvania counties of Berks, Blair, Bucks, Centre, Chester, Clearfield, Cumberland, Dauphin, Fayette, Huntingdon, Lancaster, Lehigh, Luzerne, Lycoming, Montgomery, Northumberland, Perry, Schuylkill and Westmoreland. Commercial real estate, construction, and land development loans are collateralized mainly by mortgages on the income-producing real estate or land involved. Commercial, industrial, and agricultural loans are primarily made to business entities and may be secured by business assets, including commercial real estate, or may be unsecured. Residential real estate loans are secured by liens on the residential property. Consumer loans include installment loans, lines of credit and home equity loans. The Bank has no significant concentration of credit to any one borrower. The Bank’s highest concentration of credit by loan type is in commercial real estate. Maturity distribution by contractual maturity date and rate sensitivity information related to the loan portfolio is reflected in the table below: *(In Thousands)* | As of December 31, 2022 | One Year and Less | One to Five Years | Five to Fifteen Years | Over Fifteen Years | Total | | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | | Commercial and industrial | **$10,061** | **$221,628** | **$133,931** | **$231,465** | **$597,085** | | Commercial real estate | **52,894** | **313,093** | **909,276** | **786,419** | **2,061,682** | | Commercial real estate, construction | **135,890** | **192,048** | **53,882** | **59,425** | **441,245** | | Residential mortgage | **8,562** | **24,796** | **106,045** | **152,149** | **291,552** | | Home equity | **2,856** | **14,249** | **36,771** | **57,183** | **111,059** | | Consumer | **195** | **2,560** | **1,136** | **2,989** | **6,880** | | | **$210,458** | **$768,374** | **$1,241,041** | **$1,289,630** | **$3,509,503** | | **Rate Sensitivity** | | | | | | | Predetermined rate | | | | | | | Commercial and industrial | **$4,488** | **$174,552** | **$44,670** | **$12,534** | **$236,244** | | Commercial real estate | **29,093** | **236,425** | **154,881** | **18,479** | **438,878** | | Commercial real estate, construction | **55,312** | **87,470** | **2,436** | **6,795** | **152,013** | | Residential mortgage | **8,256** | **20,339** | **66,482** | **91,095** | **186,172** | | Home equity | **1,120** | **5,516** | **20,588** | **2,742** | **29,966** | | Consumer | **139** | **2,225** | **1,136** | **234** | **3,734** | | Floating or adjustable rate | | | | | | | Commercial and industrial | **5,573** | **47,076** | **89,260** | **218,931** | **360,840** | | Commercial real estate | **23,801** | **76,668** | **754,395** | **767,940** | **1,622,804** | | Commercial real estate, construction | **80,578** | **104,578** | **51,447** | **52,630** | **289,233** | | Residential mortgage | **306** | **4,457** | **39,563** | **61,054** | **105,380** | | Home equity | **1,736** | **8,733** | **16,183** | **54,441** | **81,093** | | Consumer | **56** | **335** | **—** | **2,755** | **3,146** | | | **$210,458** | **$768,374** | **$1,241,041** | **$1,289,630** | **$3,509,503** | #### Credit Quality, Credit Risk, and Allowance for Loan Losses Other than as described herein, Mid Penn does not believe there are current significant credit-related trends, events or uncertainties relating to its loan portfolio that are reasonably expected to have a material impact on future results of operations, liquidity, or capital resources. Mid Penn recognizes that the effects of current and past economic conditions and other unfavorable business conditions, including inflation, may eventually adversely influence certain borrowers’ abilities to comply with their repayment terms. Mid Penn regularly monitors the financial strength of its borrowers, including those at higher risk of credit stress from the economic effects of COVID-19 or inflation, and does not engage in practices which may be used to artificially shield certain borrowers from the negative economic or business cycle effects that may compromise their ability to repay. Mid Penn does not normally structure construction loans with interest reserve components or perform commercial real estate or other type of loan workouts whereby an existing loan was restructured into multiple new loans. Also, Mid Penn does not extend loans at maturity solely due to the existence of guarantees, without recognizing the credit as impaired. While the existence of a guarantee may be a mitigating factor in determining the proper level of allowance once impairment has been identified, the guarantee does not affect the impairment analysis. #### Allowance for Loan Losses Mid Penn has maintained the allowance for loan losses in accordance with Mid Penn’s portfolio credit risk and potential loss assessment process, which took into consideration the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, shifting collateral values, and the assessment of other relevant qualitative factors from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2021. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 0.54% at December 31, 2022 compared to 0.47% at December 31, 2021. The following table represents non-performing assets as of: *(Dollars in thousands)* | Non-performing Assets: | December 31, 2022 | 2021 | 2020 | | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | | Non-accrual loans | **$8,195** | $9,547 | $15,047 | | Accruing troubled debt restructured loans | **390** | 435 | 463 | | Total non-performing loans | **8,585** | 9,982 | 15,510 | | Foreclosed real estate | **43** | — | 134 | | Total non-performing assets | **8,628** | 9,982 | 15,644 | | | **—** | | | | Accruing loans 90 days or more past due | **654** | 515 | — | | Total risk elements | **$9,282** | $10,497 | $15,644 | | Non-performing loans as a percentage of total loans outstanding | **0.24%** | 0.32% | 0.65% | | Non-performing assets as a percentage of total loans outstanding and other real estate | **0.25%** | 0.32% | 0.66% | | Non-accrual loans as a percentage of total loans | **0.23%** | 0.31% | 0.63% | | Allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans | **0.54%** | 0.47% | 0.56% | | Allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-accrual loans | **231.33%** | 152.90% | 88.93% | | Ratio of allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans | **220.82%** | 146.23% | 86.28% | | Allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing assets | **219.72%** | 146.23% | 85.54% | Mid Penn assesses a specific allocation for both commercial loans and commercial real estate loans prior to partially or fully charging off the loan. If a partial charge off is taken, the remaining balance remains a non-performing loan with the original terms and interest rate intact and is not treated as a restructured credit. Total non-performing assets were $8.6 million at December 31, 2022, a decrease compared to non-performing assets of $10.0 million at December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2022, there were no defaulted troubled debt restructured loans, as all troubled debt restructured loans were current with respect to their associated forbearance agreements. For discussion of troubled debt restructured loans see "Note 4 - Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses", within Item 8, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Mid Penn considers a commercial loan or commercial real estate loan to be impaired when it becomes 90 days or more past due and the collection efforts indicate that receipt of all contractual amounts due is not probable. Impairment may occur before a 90-day or more period of delinquency when it is probable, based upon the facts and circumstances, that Mid Penn will be unable to collect all contractual principal and interest due. This methodology assumes the borrower cannot or will not continue to make additional payments. At that time, the loan would likely be considered collateral dependent as the discounted cash flow ("DCF") method would indicate no operating income is available to add to the respective loan’s collateral position; therefore, most impaired loans are deemed to be collateral dependent. Mid Penn had loans with an aggregate balance of $8.6 million which were deemed by management to be impaired at December 31, 2022, including $3.7 million in loans from previous acquisitions which were acquired with credit deterioration. Of the $4.9 million of impaired loan relationships excluding the loans acquired with credit deterioration, $2.3 million were commercial real estate relationships, $1.2 million were commercial and industrial relationships, $1.1 million were residential relationships, and $285 thousand were home equity relationships. As of December 31, 2022, there were specific loan loss reserve allocations of $801 thousand against the commercial and industrial relationships, $64 thousand against the commercial real estate relationships and $22 thousand against home equity relationships. Management currently believes that the specific reserves are adequate to cover probable future losses related to these relationships. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed to be adequate by management to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio, however, determination of the allowance is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates and consideration of the above-noted qualitative factors which may be susceptible to significant change. Changes in these estimates may impact the provisions charged to expense in future periods. The allocation of the allowance for loan losses are summarized as follows: *(Dollars in thousands)* | | December 31, 2022 Amount% | | 2021 Amount% | | 2020 Amount% | | | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | | Commercial and industrial | **$4,593** | **24.2%** | $3,439 | 23.6% | $3,066 | 22.9% | | Commercial real estate | **13,142** | **69.3** | 9,415 | 64.5 | 8,655 | 64.7 | | Commercial real estate, construction | **—** | **0.0** | 38 | 0.3 | 134 | 1.0 | | Residential mortgage | **658** | **3.5** | 459 | 3.1 | 429 | 3.2 | | Home equity | **661** | **3.5** | 560 | 3.8 | 507 | 3.8 | | Consumer | **29** | **0.2** | 2 | 0.0 | 1 | 0.0 | | Unallocated | **(126)** | **4.6** | 684 | 4.6 | 590 | 4.4 | | | **$18,957** | **100.0%** | $14,597 | 100.0% | $13,382 | 100.0% | The allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2022 was $19.0 million, or 0.54% of total loans, compared to $14.6 million, or 0.47% of total loans, at December 31, 2021 and $13.4 million, or 0.56% of total loans, at December 31, 2020. The increase in the allowance balance was the result of loan growth during 2022, and one commercial relationship that was downgraded from substandard accrual to substandard non-accrual. Management continues to monitor the portfolio very closely. Management believes, based on information currently available, that the allowance for loan losses of $19.0 million as of December 31, 2022 is adequate to cover specifically identifiable loan losses, as well as estimated losses inherent in our portfolio for which certain losses are probable but not specifically identifiable. See also the discussion in the "Provision for Loan Losses" section and see "Note 1- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies", within Item 8, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the allowance for loan losses. #### Deposits and Other Funding Sources Mid Penn's primary source of funds are retail deposits from businesses, public funds depositors, and consumers in its market area. For the year ended December 31, 2022, deposits totaled $3.8 billion, a decrease of $223.7 million, or 5.6%. The decrease was primarily due to the strategic decision to allow higher cost time deposits obtained through the Riverview Acquisition to run-off during the year. Average balances and average interest rates applicable to deposits by major classification for the years ended December 31: *(Dollars in thousands)* | | 2022 Balance | Rate | 2021 Balance | Rate | Change $% | | | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | | Noninterest-bearing demand deposits | **$848,991** | **0.00%** | $684,022 | 0.00% | $164,969 | 24.12% | | Interest-bearing demand deposits | **1,051,605** | **0.37** | 688,595 | 0.34 | 363,010 | 52.72 | | Money market | **1,040,762** | **0.51** | 842,107 | 0.37 | 198,655 | 23.59 | | Savings | **355,229** | **0.05** | 218,546 | 0.11 | 136,683 | 62.54 | | Time | **524,944** | **0.92** | 451,277 | 1.24 | 73,667 | 16.32 | | | **$3,821,531** | **0.37%** | $2,884,547 | 0.39% | $936,984 | 32.48% | As of December 31, 2022, uninsured deposits were approximately $1.6 billion compared to $1.4 billion as of December 31, 2021. The maturities of the uninsured time deposits as of December 31, 2022 were as follows: *(In thousands)* | | 2022 | | --- | ---: | | Three months or less | **$17,159** | | Over three months to six months | **25,793** | | Over six months to twelve months | **50,348** | | Over twelve months | **26,004** | | | **$119,304** | Short-term borrowings as of December 31, 2022 totaled $102.6 million and consisted of FHLB overnight borrowings. Mid Penn had no short-term borrowings as of December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2022, the Bank had long-term debt outstanding in the amount of $4.4 million compared to $81.3 million as of December 31, 2021. The Bank paid off $76.5 million of FHLB fixed rate advances during 2022. Subordinated debt and trust preferred securities totaled $56.9 million as of December 31, 2022 compared to $74.3 million as of December 31, 2021. On August 8, 2022 Mid Penn redeemed $7.5 million aggregate principal amount of subordinated debt that was in the seventh year since issuance; as such, 60% of the principal balance of the notes would have been treated as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes as of December 31, 2022. In December of 2022, Mid Penn also redeemed the $9.3 million in subordinated debentures assumed as a result of the Riverview Acquisition. For details on the remaining subordinated debt, see "Note 11 - Subordinated Debt and Trust Preferred Securities", within Item 8, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. #### Shareholders' Equity and Capital Shareholders' equity, or capital, is evaluated in relation to total assets and the risk associated with those assets. The detailed computation of Mid Penn’s regulatory capital ratios can be found in "Note 17 - Regulatory Matters", within Item 8, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The greater the Corporation’s capital resources, the more likely it is to meet its cash obligations and absorb unforeseen losses. Capital management practices have been, and will continue to be, of paramount importance to the Corporation in support of both its regulatory capital requirements and its shareholders. Shareholders’ equity increased $22.0 million, or 4.5%, to $512.1 million as of December 31, 2022 from $490.1 million as of December 31, 2021, primarily as result of net income and restricted stock activity partially offset by a $19.4 million increase in accumulated comprehensive loss, dividends declared of $12.7 million and share repurchases totaling $3.0 million. For details on the change in shareholders' equity for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the year ended December 31, 2020 refer to the "Capital Resources" section of the Management's Discussion and Analysis in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. Mid Penn maintained regulatory capital levels, leverage ratios, and risk-based capital ratios as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, as follows: | | 2022 | 2021 | Regulatory Minimum for Capital Adequacy | | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | | Total Risk-Based Capital (to Risk-Weighted Assets) | **13.19%** | 14.60% | **10.50%** | | Tier I Risk-Based Capital (to Risk-Weighted Assets) | **11.18** | 12.00 | **8.50** | | Common Equity Tier I (to Risk-Weighted Assets) | **11.18** | 11.70 | **7.00** | | Tier I Leverage Capital (to Average Assets) | **9.57** | 8.10 | **4.00** | (1) Minimum amounts and ratios include the full phase in of the capital conservation buffer of 2.5 % required by the BASEL III framework. Regulatory capital ratios for both Mid Penn and the Bank exceeded regulatory "well-capitalized" levels at both December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. #### Liquidity Mid Penn's asset-liability management policy addresses the management of Mid Penn's liquidity position and its ability to raise sufficient funds to meet deposit withdrawals, fund loan growth and meet other operational needs. In addition to its cash and equivalents, Mid Penn utilizes its investments as a source of liquidity, along with deposit growth and increases in borrowings. For additional information, see "Deposits and Other Funding Sources", which appears earlier in this discussion. Liquidity from investments is provided primarily through investment calls, sales of AFS securities, prepayments on mortgage-backed securities, and from investments and interest-bearing balances with maturities of one year or less. The Bank can obtain funds from overnight borrowings, short-term borrowings, and long-term borrowings from the FHLB, up to the Bank’s maximum borrowing capacity with the FHLB, which was $1.6 billion at December 31, 2022. FHLB borrowings require the Bank to make certain restricted stock purchases in accordance with FHLB requirements. Borrowings with the FHLB are collateralized by certain qualifying loans and investment securities of the Bank. The Bank also has unused lines of credit with other correspondent banks amounting to $35.0 million at December 31, 2022. Major sources of cash in 2022 came from the increase in short-term borrowings and net income. Short-term borrowings were used to help fund the loan growth. Major uses of cash in 2022 were the increase in the loan portfolio, purchase of investment securities, long-term debt repayment, subordinated debt redemption and trust preferred securities redemption. The consolidated statements of cash flow provide additional information. #### Contractual Obligations Mid Penn has substantial aggregate contractual obligations to make future cash payments as of December 31, 2022 as outlined below: *(Dollars in thousands)* | | Total One Year or Less | Payments Due by Period One to Three Years | Three to Five Years | More than Five Years | | | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | | Operating lease obligations | **$10,739** | **$2,170** | **$3,905** | **$2,351** | **$2,313** | | Finance lease obligation | **4,461** | **217** | **511** | **520** | **3,213** | | Certificates of deposit | **664,600** | **442,424** | **189,572** | **28,226** | **4,378** | | Long-term debt | **1,323** | **339** | **720** | **260** | **4** | | Subordinated debt | **56,941** | **—** | **—** | **—** | **56,941** | | | **$738,064** | **$445,150** | **$194,708** | **$31,357** | **$66,849** | 45 Details on expected maturities of investments, loans and deposits are presented in the above sections of Management's Discussion and Analysis. We are not aware of any other commitments or contingent liabilities which may have a material adverse impact on Mid Penn’s liquidity or capital resources. #### Effects of Inflation A bank's asset and liability structure is substantially different from that of an industrial company in that virtually all assets and liabilities of a bank are monetary in nature. Management believes the impact of inflation on its financial results depends principally upon Mid Penn's ability to measure its sensitivity to changes in interest rates and to take appropriate actions, as needed or controllable by the Bank, to mitigate the impacts of inflation on performance. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or at the same magnitude as the prices of other goods and services. As discussed previously, management seeks to manage the relationship between interest sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect against wide interest rate fluctuations, including those resulting from inflation. Information included elsewhere in this report will assist in the understanding of how Mid Penn is positioned to react to changing interest rates and inflationary trends. In particular, the previously discussed risk factors, the composition of and yields on loans and investments, and the composition and costs of deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities, should be considered. #### Off-Balance Sheet Risk Mid Penn makes contractual commitments to extend credit and extends lines of credit, which are subject to Mid Penn's credit approval and monitoring procedures. As of December 31, 2022, commitments to extend credit amounted to $1.0 billion compared to $930.7 million as of December 31, 2021. Mid Penn also issues standby letters of credit to its customers. The risk associated with standby letters of credit is essentially the same as the credit risk involved in loan extensions to customers. Standby letters of credit increased to $57.2 million at December 31, 2022, from $55.6 million at December 31, 2021. ## Market risk As filed, 3,290 characters. As a financial institution, Mid Penn’s primary source of market risk is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the exposure to fluctuations in Mid Penn’s future earnings (earnings at risk) resulting from changes in interest rates. This exposure or sensitivity is a function of the repricing characteristics of Mid Penn's portfolio of assets and liabilities. Each asset and liability reprices either at maturity or during the life of the instrument. Interest rate sensitivity is measured as the difference between the volume of assets and liabilities that are subject to repricing in a future period of time. The principal purpose of asset-liability management is to maximize current and future net interest income within acceptable levels of interest rate risk while satisfying liquidity and capital requirements. Net interest income is increased by increasing the net interest margin and by volume growth. Thus, the goal of interest rate risk management is to maintain a balance between risk and reward such that net interest income is maximized while risk is maintained at an acceptable level. Mid Penn utilizes an asset-liability management model to measure the impact of interest rate movements on its interest rate sensitivity position. Mid Penn’s management also reviews the traditional maturity gap analysis regularly. Mid Penn does not always attempt to achieve an exact match between interest sensitive assets and liabilities because it believes that an actively managed amount of interest rate risk is inherent and appropriate in the management of Mid Penn’s profitability. Modeling techniques and simulation analysis involve assumptions and estimates that inherently cannot be measured with complete precision. Key assumptions in the analyses include maturity and repricing characteristics of assets and liabilities, prepayments on amortizing assets, non-maturing deposit sensitivity, and loan and deposit pricing. These assumptions are inherently uncertain due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of rate changes and changes in market conditions and management strategies, among other factors. However, the analyses are useful in quantifying risk and provide a relative gauge of Mid Penn’s interest rate risk position over time. Management reviews interest rate risk on a quarterly basis. This analysis includes earnings scenarios whereby interest rates are increased by 100, 200, 300, and 400 bp and decreased by 100 bp. These scenarios, detailed in the table below, indicate that Mid Penn would experience enhanced net interest income over a one-year time frame due to upward interest rate changes, while a reduction in interest rates would result in a decline in net interest income over a one-year time frame; however, actual results could vary significantly from the calculations prepared by management. At December 31, 2022, all interest rate risk levels according to the model were within the tolerance limits of the Board-approved policy. ### The following table reflects the effect of hypothetical changes in interest rates: | Change in Basis Points | % Change in Net Interest Income | Policy Risk Limit | | ---: | ---: | --- | | 400 | 0.24% | ≥ -25% | | 300 | 0.21% | ≥ -20% | | 200 | 0.20% | ≥ -15% | | 100 | 0.13% | ≥ -10% | | (100) | 1.83% | ≥ -10% | 47 ## Controls and procedures As filed, 1,607 characters. ### Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures Mid Penn carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 as of December 31, 2022. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded, as of December 31, 2022, that Mid Penn’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in recording, processing, summarizing, and reporting information required to be disclosed by Mid Penn within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Management’s Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting is located on page 49 of this report and is incorporated herein by reference. Our independent registered public accounting firm, RSM US LLP, also attested to, and reported on, the effectiveness of Mid Penn’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. RSM US LLP’s attestation report appears in Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplemental Data." ### Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting There have been no changes in Mid Penn’s internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Mid Penn’s internal control over financial reporting.
