This 10-K provides the first full-year financial results following the significant acquisition of Heartland Financial USA, Inc. in January 2025. The report demonstrates substantial growth across key financial metrics, including net income, net interest income, total assets, and deposits, indicating successful integration and expanded market presence. However, the notable increase in non-performing loans, while attributed to the acquired portfolio, warrants close monitoring as it impacts credit quality.
