(1)   Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary in order to make those statements not misleading. Management is required to make estimates and assumptions, including the determination of the allowance for loan losses, real estate acquired in connection with foreclosure or in satisfaction of loans, and fair values of investment securities available-for-sale that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Our Company’s management has evaluated and did not identify any subsequent events or transactions requiring recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.
     These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Company’s audited consolidated financials statements included in its 2010 Annual Report to Shareholders under the caption Consolidated Financial Statements and incorporated by reference into its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 as Exhibit 13.
     On July 1, 2010, our Company paid a special stock dividend of four percent to common shareholders of record at the close of business on May 19, 2010. For all periods presented, share information, including basic and diluted earnings per share have been adjusted retroactively to reflect this change.
     The significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the quarterly financial statements are disclosed in the 2010 Annual Report on form 10-K.

     Loans, or portions of loans, are charged off to the extent deemed uncollectible. Loan charge-offs reduce the allowance for loan losses, and recoveries of loans previously charged off are added back to the allowance. Once the fair value for a collateral dependent loan has been determined, any impaired amount is typically charged off unless the loan has other income streams to support repayment. For impaired loans which have other income streams to support repayment, a specific reserve is established for the amount determined to be impaired.

Impaired loans
     Impaired loans totaled $50,027,707 and $56,270,543 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 respectively, and are comprised of loans on non-accrual status and loans which have been classified as troubled debt restructurings.
The categories of impaired loans at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are as follows:
                 
    March 31,   December 31,
    2011   2010
 
Non-accrual loans
  $ 47,523,846     $ 50,586,887  
Troubled debt restructurings continuing to accrue interest
    2,503,861       5,683,656  
 
Total impaired loans
  $ 50,027,707     $ 56,270,543  
 
     At March 31, 2011, loans classified as trouble debt restructurings (TDR) totaled $19,799,004, of which $17,295,143 were on non-accrual status and $2,503,861 were on accrual status. At December 31, 2010, loans classified as TDR totaled $22,080,431, of which $16,396,775 were on non-accrual status and $5,683,656 was on accrual status. Reserves allocated to troubled debt restructurings were $1,418,000 and $1,359,000 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
     Interest income recognized on loans in non-accrual status and contractual interest that would be recorded had the loans performed in accordance with their original contractual terms is as follows:
                 
    Three Months Ended March 31,
    2011   2010
 
Contractual interest due on non-accrual loans
  $ 606,436     $ 507,241  
Interest income recognized on loans in non-accrual status
    38       13,354  
 
Net reduction in interest income
  $ 606,398     $ 493,887  
 
     The specific reserve component of our Company’s allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was determined by using fair values of the underlying collateral obtained through independent appraisals and internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. The recorded investment varies from the unpaid principal balance primarily due to partial charge-offs taken resulting from current appraisals received. The amount recognized as interest income on impaired loans continuing to accrue interest, primarily related to troubled debt restructurings, was $35,849 and $165,005, for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010, respectively. Average recorded investment in impaired loans is calculated on a monthly basis during the period.

     It is our Company’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income on loans when management believes that the borrower’s financial condition, after consideration of business conditions and collection efforts, is such that the collection of interest is doubtful, or upon which principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more and the asset is not both well secured and in the process of collection. Subsequent interest payments received on such loans are applied to principal if any doubt exists as to the collectability of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as interest income on a cash basis.

     The following table provides information about the credit quality of the loan portfolio using our Company’s internal rating system reflecting management’s risk assessment. Loans are placed on watch status when (1) one or more weaknesses which could jeopardize timely liquidation exits; or (2) the margin or liquidity of an asset is sufficiently tenuous that adverse trends could result in a collection problem. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified may have a well defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the repayment of the debt. Such loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that our Company may sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when (1) deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower exists such that payment of full principal and interest is not expected, or (2) payment of principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more and the asset is not both well secured and in the process of collection.

     Our Company’s available for sale portfolio consisted of approximately 361 securities at March 31, 2011. None of these securities had been in the loss position for 12 months or longer. The $1,015,000 unrealized loss included in other comprehensive income at March 31, 2011 was caused by interest rate increases. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality these investments were not considered other-than-temporarily impaired.

     Our Company’s available for sale portfolio consisted of approximately 333 securities at December 31, 2010. None of these securities had been in the loss position for 12 months or longer. The $1,136,000 unrealized loss included in other comprehensive income at December 31, 2010 was caused by interest rate increases. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality these investments were not considered other-than-temporarily impaired.
     During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, there were no proceeds from sales of securities and no components of investment securities gains and losses which have been recognized earnings.
(5) Intangible Assets
     A summary of other intangible assets at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively is as follows:

     Changes in the net carrying amount of other intangible assets for the three months ended March 31, 2011 are as follows:
                 
    Core Deposit   Mortgage

  $ 859,483     $ 2,327,939  
 
     Mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) are amortized over the shorter of 7 years or the life of the loan. They are periodically reviewed for impairment and if impairment is indicated, recorded at fair value. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, no temporary impairment was recognized. The fair value of MSRs is based on the present value of expected cash flows, as further discussed in Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Mortgage loans serviced for others totaled approximately $300,773,000 and $298,325,000 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Included in other noninterest income were real estate servicing fees for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 of $180,000, and $192,000, respectively.

     The aggregate amortization expense of intangible assets subject to amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 is as follows:
                 
    For the Three Months Ended
    March 31,

  $ 118,026     $ 150,519  
Mortgage servicing rights
    149,239       134,874  
 
     Our Company’s amortization expense on intangible assets in any given period may be different from the estimated amounts depending upon the acquisition of intangible assets, changes in mortgage interest rates, prepayment rates and other market conditions. The following table shows the estimated future amortization expense based on existing asset balances and the interest rate environment as of March 31, 2011 for the next five years:
                 
    Core Deposit   Mortgage
    Intangible   Servicing
    Asset   Rights

          294,000  
2015
          239,000  
 
(6) Income Taxes
     Our Company follows ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which addresses the accounting for uncertain tax positions. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our Company had $221,000 of gross unrecognized tax benefits that if recognized would affect the effective tax rate. Our Company believes that during 2011 it is reasonably possible that there would be a reduction of $221,000 in gross unrecognized tax benefits as a result of the lapse of statute of limitations for the 2007 tax year. At March 31, 2011, total interest accrued on unrecognized tax benefits was approximately $37,000. As of March 31, 2011, there were no federal or state income tax examinations in process.
     The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not our Company will realize the benefits of these temporary differences at March 31, 2011 and, therefore, has not established a valuation reserve.
     Income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes as reported in the consolidated financial statements were 32.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 27.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2011 reflects a decrease in tax-exempt income as a percentage of total taxable income.

Total employee benefits
  $ 1,116,603     $ 1,136,928  
 
     Our Company’s profit-sharing plan includes a matching 401k portion, in which our Company matches the first 3% of eligible employee contributions. Our Company made annual contributions in an amount up to 6% of income before income taxes and before contributions to the profit-sharing and pension plans for all participants, limited to the maximum amount deductible for Federal income tax purposes, for each of the years shown. In addition, employees were able to make additional tax-deferred contributions.
Pension
     Our Company also provides a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan for all full-time employees. An employer is required to recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its balance sheet and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. Under our Company’s funding policy for the defined benefit pension plan, contributions are made to a trust as necessary to provide for current service and for any unfunded accrued actuarial liabilities over a reasonable period. To the extent that these requirements are fully covered by assets in the trust, a contribution might not be made in a particular year. Our Company made a $554,000 contribution to the defined benefit plan in 2010, and the minimum required contribution for 2011 is estimated to be $997,000. Our Company has contributed $529,000 to the plan for the year.
     The following items are components of net pension cost for the periods indicated:

(8) Stock Compensation
     Our Company’s stock option plan provides for the grant of options to purchase up to 486,720 shares of our Company’s common stock to officers and other key employees of our Company and its subsidiaries. All options have been granted at exercise prices equal to fair value and vest over periods ranging from four to five years, except options issued in 2008 to acquire $10,294 shares that vested immediately.
     The following table summarizes our Company’s stock option activity:
                                 
                    Weighted    
            Weighted   Average   Aggregate
    Number   Average   Contractual   Intrinsic

Exercisable at March 31, 2011
    211,243     $ 25.52       3.9     $  
 
     Total stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $22,000 and $29,000, respectively. As of March 31, 2011, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock awards was $134,000 and the related weighted average period over which it is expected to be recognized is approximately three years.
(9) Comprehensive Income
     Activity in other comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 is shown in the Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity and Comprehensive Income. The first component of other comprehensive income is the unrealized holding gains and losses on available for sale securities. Our Company did not have any other-than temporary impairment (OTTI) as required to be reported under current accounting guidance for OTTI on debt securities during the periods reported. Under this guidance, credit-related losses on debt securities with OTTI are recorded in current earnings, while the noncredit- related portion of the overall gain or loss in fair value is recorded in other comprehensive income. The second component of other comprehensive income is pension gains and losses that arise during the period but are not recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost, and corresponding adjustments when these gains and losses are subsequently amortized to net periodic benefit cost.
(10) Preferred Stock
     On December 19, 2008, our Company announced its participation in the U.S. Treasury Department’s Capital Purchase Program (CPP), a voluntary program that provides capital to financially healthy banks. This program is designed to attract broad participation by banking institutions to help stabilize the financial system by encouraging lending. Our Company has used the funds received, as discussed below, to continue to provide loans to its customers and to look for ways to deploy additional funds to benefit the communities in our Company’s market area.
     Participating in this program included our Company’s issuance of 30,255 shares of senior preferred stock (with a par value of $1,000 per share) and a ten year warrant to purchase approximately 265,471 shares of common stock (see below for additional information) to the U.S. Department of Treasury in exchange for $30,255,000. The proceeds received were allocated between the preferred stock and the common stock warrant based upon their relative fair values. This resulted in

(Unaudited)
the recording of a discount on the preferred stock upon issuance that reflects the value allocated to the warrant. The discount on the preferred stock will be accreted over five years, consistent with managements’ estimate of the life of the preferred stock. Such accretion will be treated as additional dividends on the preferred stock. The allocated carrying values of the senior preferred stock and common stock warrant at March 31, 2011 were $28,960,000 and $2,382,000, respectively.
     The preferred shares carry a 5% cumulative dividend for the first five years and 9% thereafter if not redeemed. The preferred shares are redeemable after three years at par plus accrued dividends, or before three years if our Company raises Tier 1 capital in an amount equal to the preferred stock issued. The preferred stock generally does not have any voting rights, subject to an exception in the event our Company fails to pay dividends on the preferred stock for six or more quarterly periods, whether or not consecutive. Under such circumstances, the Treasury will be entitled to vote to elect two directors to the board until all unpaid dividends have been paid or declared and set apart for payment. Our Company is prohibited from paying any dividends with respect to shares of common stock unless all accrued and unpaid dividends are paid in full on the senior preferred stock for all past dividend periods. The Treasury Department may also transfer the senior preferred stock to a third party at any time.
     The common stock warrant is exercisable immediately with a ten year term, in whole or in part, at an exercise price of $17.10 per share. The preferred stock and warrant are classified as stockholders’ equity in the consolidated balance sheet and qualify, for regulatory capital purposes, as Tier I capital. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, our Company had declared and paid $378,000 of dividends and amortized $119,000 of accretion of the discount on preferred stock.
(11) Earnings per Share
     Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the year. The calculations of basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:

     Under the treasury stock method, outstanding stock options are dilutive when the average market price of our Company’s common stock, when combined with the effect of any unamortized compensation expense, exceeds the option price during the period, except when our Company has a loss from continuing operations available to common shareholders. In addition, proceeds from the assumed exercise of dilutive options along with the related tax benefit are assumed to be used to repurchase common shares at the average market price of such stock during the period.
     The following options to purchase shares during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were not included in the respective computations of diluted earnings per share because the exercise price of the option, when combined with the effect of the unamortized compensation expense, was greater than the average market price of the common shares and were considered anti-dilutive.

(12) Fair Value Measurements
     Our Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities. The FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a framework for the measurement of fair value, and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard applies whenever other standards require (permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. In this standard, FASB clarified the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. In support of this principle, the standard establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. As of the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, there were no transfers into or out of Level 2.
     The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
    Level 1 — Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
 
    Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
 
    Level 3 — Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and significant to the fair value. These may be internally developed using our Company’s best information and assumptions that a market participant would consider.
     ASC Topic 820 also provides guidance on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability has significantly decreased and on identifying circumstances when a transaction may not be considered orderly.
     Our Company is required to disclose assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis separate from those measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Nonfinancial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis would include foreclosed real estate, long-lived assets, and core deposit intangible assets, which are reviewed when circumstances or other events indicate that impairment may have occurred.
Valuation methods for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis
     Following is a description of our Company’s valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis:
Available-for-sale securities
     Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Available-for-sale securities is the only balance sheet category our Company is required, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), to carry at fair value on a recurring basis. Securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. For these securities, our Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Valuation methods for instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis
     Following is a description of our Company’s valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:
Impaired Loans
     Our Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis other than loans that are considered impaired. The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on fair values of the underlying collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. Once the fair value of the collateral has been determined and any impairment amount calculated, a specific reserve allocation is made. Because many of these inputs are not observable, the measurements are classified as Level 3. As of March 31, 2011, our Company identified $23.7 million in impaired loans that had specific allowances for losses aggregating $3.7 million. Related to these loans, there was $3.1 million in charge-offs recorded during 2011.
Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets
     Other real estate owned and repossessed assets consist of loan collateral which has been repossessed through foreclosure. This collateral is comprised of commercial and residential real estate and other non-real estate property, including autos, manufactured homes, and construction equipment. Other real estate owned assets are recorded as held for sale initially at the lower of the loan balance or fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Our Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by our internal staff. In the case of non-real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety of sources, including external estimates of value and judgment based on experience and expertise of internal specialists. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the assets may be written down to reflect a new cost basis. Because many of these inputs are not observable, the measurements are classified as Level 3.

(13)   Fair Value of Financial Instruments
    The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate such value:
 
    Loans
    The fair value of loans is estimated based on present values using applicable risk-adjusted spreads to the U. S. Treasury curve to approximate current interest rates applicable to each category of such financial instruments. The net carrying amount of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. This method of estimating fair value does not incorporate the exit-price concept of fair value prescribed by ASC Topic 820.
 
    Investment Securities
    A detailed description of the fair value measurement of the debt instruments in the available for sale sections of the investment security portfolio is provided in the Fair Value Measurement section above. A schedule of investment securities by category and maturity is provided in the notes on Investment Securities.
 
    Federal Funds Sold, Cash, and Due from Banks
    For federal funds sold, cash, and due from banks, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value, as such instruments reprice in a short time period.

    Mortgage Servicing Rights
    The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows utilizing servicing rate, constant prepayment rate, servicing cost, and discount rate factors.
 
    Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable
    For accrued interest receivable and payable, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short maturity for these financial instruments.
 
    Deposits
    The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand, NOW accounts, savings, and money market, is equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of time deposits is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
    Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase and Interest-bearing Demand Notes to U.S. Treasury
    For securities sold under agreements to repurchase and interest-bearing demand notes to U.S. Treasury, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value, as such instruments reprice in a short time period.
 
    Other Borrowings
    The fair value of subordinated notes and other borrowings, Federal Home Loan borrowings, is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for other borrowed money of similar remaining maturities.

    Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
 
    The fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements, the likelihood of the counterparties drawing on such financial instruments, and the present creditworthiness of such counterparties. Our Company believes such commitments have been made on terms, which are competitive in the markets in which it operates. See Note 16 for further discussion.
 
    Limitations
    The fair value estimates provided are made at a point in time based on market information and information about the financial instruments. Because no market exists for a portion of our Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the fair value estimates.

(14)   Pending Litigation
     Our Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in various legal actions incidental to our Company’s past and current business activities. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our Company’s consolidated balance sheets included liabilities for these legal actions of $273,000 and $275,000, respectively. Based on our Company’s analysis, and considering the inherent uncertainties associated with litigation, we do not believe that it is reasonably possible that these legal actions will materially adversely affect our Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations in the near term.
     On November 18, 2010, a suit was filed against Hawthorn Bank (the Bank) in the Circuit Court of Jackson County for the Eastern Division of Missouri state court by a customer alleging that the fees associated with the Bank’s automated overdraft program in connection with its debit card and ATM cards constitute unlawful interest in violation of Missouri’s usury laws. The suit seeks class-action status for Bank customers who have paid overdraft fees on their checking accounts. The Bank has filed for a motion to dismiss the suit. At this early stage of the litigation, it is not possible for management of the Bank to determine the probability of a material adverse outcome or reasonably estimate the amount of any potential loss.
     On December 17, 2009, a suit was filed against Hawthorn Bank (the Bank) in Circuit Court of Jackson County for the Eastern Division of Missouri state court by a customer alleging that the Bank had not followed through on its commitment to fund a loan request. A jury found in favor of the customer and as of March 31, 2011, our Company is carrying a liability of $273,000 representing the balance its estimated obligation. Our Company is currently in the early stages of the appeals process and the probable outcome is presently not determinable.

Item 2 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition And Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
     This report contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business of our Company and its subsidiaries, including, without limitation:
    statements that are not historical in nature, and
 
    statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words believes, expects, may, will, should, could, anticipates, estimates, intends or similar expressions.
     Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements due to, among others, the following factors:
    competitive pressures among financial services companies may increase significantly,
 
    changes in the interest rate environment may reduce interest margins,
 
    general economic conditions, either nationally or in Missouri, may be less favorable than expected and may adversely affect the quality of our loans and other assets,
 
    increases in non-performing assets in our loan portfolios and adverse economic conditions may necessitate increases to our provisions for loan losses,
 
    costs or difficulties related to the integration of the business of our Company and its acquisition targets may be greater than expected,
 
    legislative or regulatory changes may adversely affect the business in which our Company and its subsidiaries are engaged, including those discussed below in the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, and
 
    changes may occur in the securities markets.
     The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, or the Dodd-Frank Act, was enacted on July 21, 2010. Provisions of the Act address many issues including, but not limited to, capital, interchange fees, compliance and risk management, debit card overdraft fees, the establishment of a new consumer regulator, healthcare, incentive compensation, expanded disclosures and corporate governance. While many of the new regulations under the Act are expected to primarily impact financial institutions with assets greater than $10 billion, our Company expects these new regulations could reduce our revenues and increase our expenses in the future. Management is currently assessing the impact of the Act and of the regulations anticipated to be promulgated under the Act.
     We have described under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and in other reports that we file with the SEC from time to time, additional factors that could cause actual results to be materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements. Other factors that we have not identified in this report could also have this effect. You are cautioned not to put undue reliance on any forward-looking statement, which speak only as of the date they were made.
Overview
     Our Company, Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc., is a community-based, financial institution bank holding company headquartered in Lee’s Summit, Missouri. Our Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Missouri on October 23, 1992 as Exchange National Bancshares, Inc. and changed its name to Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. in August 2007. Our Company owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Union State Bancshares, Inc., which in turn owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Hawthorn Bank. Our Company conducts operations primarily through our Bank. Our Bank, a state charted bank, had $1.20 billion in assets at March 31, 2011, and 24 full-service banking offices, including its principal office in Jefferson City, Missouri. Our Bank is committed to providing the most up-to-date financial products and services and delivering these products and services to our market area with superior customer service.
     Through our branch network, our Bank provides a broad range of commercial and personal banking services, including certificates of deposit, individual retirement and other time deposit accounts, checking and other demand deposit accounts, interest checking accounts, savings accounts, and money market accounts. We also provide a wide range of lending

Table of Contents

services, including real estate, commercial, installment, and other consumer loans. Other financial services that we provide include automatic teller machines, trust services, credit related insurance, and safe deposit boxes. The geographic areas in which we provide our products and services include the communities in and surrounding Jefferson City, Clinton, Warsaw, Springfield, Branson and Lee’s Summit, Missouri. The products and services are offered to customers primarily within these geographical areas.
     Our Company’s primary source of revenue is net interest income derived primarily from lending and deposit taking activities. A secondary source of revenue is investment income. Our Company also derives income from trust, brokerage, credit card and mortgage banking activities and service charge income.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     The following accounting policies are considered most critical to the understanding of our Company’s financial condition and results of operations. These critical accounting policies require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. Because these estimates and judgments are based on current circumstances, they may change over time or prove to be inaccurate based on actual experiences. In the event that different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, and depending upon the severity of such changes, the possibility of a materially different financial condition and/or results of operations could reasonably be expected. The impact and any associated risks related to our critical accounting policies on our business operations is discussed throughout “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” where such polices affect our reported and expected financial results.
Allowance for Loan Losses
     We have identified the accounting policy related to the allowance for loan losses as critical to the understanding of our Company’s results of operations, since the application of this policy requires significant management assumptions and estimates that could result in materially different amounts to be reported if conditions or underlying circumstances were to change. Further discussion of the methodology used in establishing the allowance and the impact of any associated risks related to these policies on our business operations is discussed in the Lending and Credit Management section below. Many of the loans are deemed collateral dependent for purposes of the measurement of the impairment loss, thus the fair value of the underlying collateral and sensitivity of such fair values due to changing market conditions, supply and demand, condition of the collateral and other factors can be volatile over periods of time. Such volatility can have an impact on the financial performance of our Company.
Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets
     Other real estate owned and repossessed assets consist of loan collateral which has been repossessed through foreclosure. This collateral is comprised of commercial and residential real estate and other non-real estate property, including autos, manufactured homes, and construction equipment. Other real estate owned assets are initially recorded as held for sale at the lower of the loan balance or fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Any adjustment is recorded as a charge-off against the allowance for loan losses. Our Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by internal staff. In the case of non-real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety of sources, including external estimates of value and judgment based on experience and expertise of internal specialists. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the assets may be written down to reflect a new cost basis. The write-downs are recorded as other real estate expense. Our Company establishes a valuation allowance related to other real estate owned on an asset-by-asset basis. The valuation allowance is created during the holding period when the fair value less cost to sell is lower than the “cost” of a parcel of other real estate.
Valuation of Investment Securities
At the time of purchase, debt securities are classified into one of two categories: available-for-sale or held-to-maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which our Company has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity. All debt securities not classified as held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale. Our Company’s securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. Changes in fair value, excluding certain losses associated with other-than-temporary impairment, are reported in other comprehensive income, net of taxes, a component of stockholders’ equity. Securities are periodically evaluated for other-than-temporary impairment in accordance with guidance provided in the FASB ASC Topic 320, Investments — Debt and Equity Securities. For those securities with other-than-temporary impairment, the entire loss in fair value is required to be recognized in current earnings if our Company intends to sell the securities or believes it more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before the anticipated recovery.

If neither condition is met, but our Company does not expect to recover the amortized cost basis, our Company determines whether a credit loss has occurred, which is then recognized in current earnings. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to all other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income.
Premiums and discounts are amortized using the interest method over the lives of the respective securities, with consideration of historical and estimated prepayment rates for mortgage-backed securities, as an adjustment to yield. Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned. Realized gains and losses for securities classified as available-for-sale are included in earnings based on the specific identification method for determining the cost of securities sold.
Income Taxes
     Income taxes are accounted for under the asset / liability method by recognizing the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current period and deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences of events that been that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Judgment is required in addressing our Company’s future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our consolidated financial statements or tax returns such as realization of the effects of temporary differences, net operating loss carry forward, and changes in tax laws or interpretations thereof. A valuation allowance is established when in the judgment of management, it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not become realizable. In this case, our Company would adjust the recorded value of our deferred tax asset, which would result in a direct charge to income tax expense in the period that the determination was made. Given the sensitivity of our Company’s financial performance to changes in net interest margins and increasing reserves associated with loan losses and other real estate owned, sustained negative financial performance could provide sufficient negative evidence to necessitate a deferred tax asset valuation allowance. In addition, our Company is subject to the continuous examination of our tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities. Our Company accrues for interest related to income taxes in income tax expense. Total interest expense recognized was $4,000 and $9,000 as of March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, total accrued interest was $37,000 and $31,000, respectively.

Average interest-earning assets decreased $55,515,000, or 4.7% to $1,123,767,000 at March 31, 2011 compared to $1,179,282,000 at March 31, 2010 and average interest bearing liabilities decreased $52,510,000, or 5.2%, to $966,994,000 at March 31, 2011 compared to $1,019,504,000 at March 31, 2010.

     Average investment securities and federal funds sold increased $37,872,000 or 23.6% to $198,436,000 at March 31, 2011 compared to $160,564,000 at March 31, 2010. Average interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions increased $3,094,000 to $34,035,000 at March 31, 2011 compared to $30,941,000 at March 31, 2010. See the Liquidity Management section below for further discussion.
     The overall decrease in average interest bearing liabilities was due to a decrease in time deposits and other borrowed money. Average time deposits decreased $28,060,000, or 3.3%, to $830,586,000 at March 31, 2011 compared to $858,646,000 at March 31, 2010.

The decrease in 2011 reflects a net decrease in Federal Home Loan Bank advances.
Rate and volume analysis
     The following table summarizes the changes in net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis, by major category of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, indentifying changes related to volumes and rates for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010. The change in interest due to the combined rate/volume variance has been allocated to rate and volume changes in proportion to the absolute dollar amounts of change in each.

Measured as a percentage of average earning assets, the net interest margin (expressed on a fully taxable equivalent basis) increased from 3.61% for the three months ended March 31, 2010 to 3.84% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Our Company’s net interest spread increased to 3.66% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from 3.37% for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
     While our Company was able to decrease the rate paid on interest bearing liabilities to 1.30% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from 1.81% for the three months ended March 31, 2010, this decrease was partially offset by the decrease in the rates earned on interest bearing assets from 5.18% in 2010 to 4.96% in 2011.

     Noninterest income increased $46,000 or 2.3% to $2,052,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $2,006,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was primarily the result of a $21,000 increase in the gains on sales of mortgage loans, a $16,000 increase in trust department income, and a $15,000 increase in service charges on deposit accounts. During the first three months of 20l1, our Company experienced a slight increase in refinancing activity impacting both volumes of loans sold and gains recognized compared to the first three months of 2010. Our Company was servicing $300,773,000 of mortgage loans at March 31, 2011 compared to $298,325,000 at December 31, 2010, and $271,284,000 at March 31, 2010. Our Company had no sales of debt securities during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

or 98.8%, increase in legal, examination, and professional fees. The increase in legal, examination, and professional fees included a $35,000 increase in legal fees, $55,000 increase in audit fees, and a $157,000 increase in consulting fees. The increase in the legal fees primarily relates to fees incurred on pending litigation. See Note 14 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further explanation. The increase in audit fees reflects a review of our Company’s loan files for Home Loan Mortgage Act compliance, and the increase in consulting fees was primarily due to a human resource best practices and profitability consulting project.
Income taxes
     Income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes as reported in the consolidated financial statements were 32.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 27.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2011 reflects a decrease in tax-exempt income as a percentage of total taxable income.
Lending and Credit Management
     Interest earned on the loan portfolio is a primary source of interest income for our Company. Net loans represented 71.6% of total assets as of March 31, 2011 compared to 73.7% as of December 31, 2010.
     Lending activities are conducted pursuant to an established loan policy approved by our Bank’s Board of Directors. The Bank’s credit review process is comprised of a regional loan committee with an established approval limit. In addition, a senior loan committee reviews all credit relationships in aggregate over an established dollar amount. The senior loan committee meets weekly and is comprised of senior managers of the Bank.
A summary of loans, by major class within our Company’s loan portfolio as of the dates indicated are as follows:

     Our Company’s loan portfolio decreased $23,991,000, or 2.7% from December 31, 2010 to March 31, 2011, primarily due to repayments, charge-offs and transfers to other real estate owned. During the first three months of 2011 our Company experienced reduced loan demand, thus loan pay-downs and payoffs exceeded new originations. This decrease was seen throughout our Company’s loan portfolio. Gross loans charged-off of $4,138,000 and $4,175,000 of assets transferred from loans to other real estate owned and repossessed assets contributed to this decline.
     During the current down-turn in the economy, management continues to focus on the improvement of asset quality. Management has tightened underwriting standards and is focused on lending to credit worthy borrowers with the capacity to service the debts. Where appropriate, management actively works with existing borrowers to modify loan terms and conditions in order to assist the borrowers in servicing their debt obligations to our Company. The decrease in lending activities in the real estate construction market also reflects the slowdown in the housing industry and residential construction industry as well as foreclosures on various residential construction properties. Construction lending will continue to be closely monitored.
     Our Company does not participate in extending credit to sub-prime residential real estate markets. Our Company extends credit to its local community market through traditional real estate mortgage products.
     Our Company does not lend funds for the type of transactions defined as “highly leveraged” by bank regulatory authorities or for foreign loans. Additionally, our Company does not have any concentrations of loans exceeding 10% of total loans which are not otherwise disclosed in the loan portfolio composition table. Our Company does not have any

interest-earning assets which would have been included in nonaccrual, past due, or restructured loans if such assets were loans.
     Our Company generally does not retain long-term fixed rate residential mortgage loans in its portfolio. Fixed rate loans conforming to standards required by the secondary market are offered to qualified borrowers, but are not funded until our Company has a non-recourse purchase commitment from the secondary market at a predetermined price. During the quarter our Company sold $12,049,000 of loans to investors. At March 31, 2011our Company was servicing approximately $300,773,000 of loans sold to the secondary market.
     Real estate mortgage loans retained in our Company’s portfolio generally include provisions for rate adjustments at one to three year intervals. Commercial loans and real estate construction loans generally have maturities of less than one year. Installment loans to individuals are primarily fixed rate loans with maturities from one to five years.
     Management along with senior loan committee, and internal loan review, formally review all loans in excess of certain dollar amounts (periodically established) at least annually. Currently, loans in excess of $2,000,000 in aggregate and all adversely classified credits identified by management as containing more than usual risk are reviewed. In addition, loans below the above scope are reviewed on a sample basis. On a monthly basis, the senior loan committee reviews and reports to the Board of Directors past due, classified, and watch list loans in order to classify or reclassify loans as loans requiring attention, substandard, doubtful, or loss. During this review, management also determines which loans should be considered impaired. Management follows the guidance provided in the FASB’s ASC Topic 310, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, in identifying and measuring loan impairment. If management determines that it is probable that all amounts due on a loan will not be collected under the original terms of the loan agreement, the loan is considered to be impaired. These loans are evaluated individually for impairment, and in conjunction with current economic conditions and loss experience, allowances are estimated based on the fair value as further discussed below. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type, delinquencies, current economic conditions, loan risk ratings and industry concentration. Management believes, but there can be no assurance, that these procedures keep management informed of potential problem loans. Based upon these procedures, both the allowance and provision for loan losses are adjusted to maintain the allowance at a level considered adequate by management for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio.
Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses
     The provision for loan losses decreased $755,000 or 30.1% to $1,750,000 for three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $2,505,000 for three months ended March 31, 2010.
     The current economy has contributed to the deterioration of collateral values. The economic downturn and elevated unemployment rates in our market area have impaired the ability for certain of our customers to make payments on our loans in accordance with contractual terms.
     Our Company has taken an active approach to obtain current appraisals and has adjusted the provision to reflect the amounts management determined necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level adequate to cover probable losses in the loan portfolio. Due to charge offs taken during 2011, the allowance for loan losses decreased to $12,402,000 or 1.4% of loans outstanding at March 31, 2011 compared to $14,565,000 or 1.6% of loans outstanding at December 31, 2010, and $14,658,000 or 1.5% of loans outstanding at March 31, 2010.

     As shown in the table above, our Company experienced net loan charge-offs of $3,913,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $2,644,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The $1,269,000 net increase was primarily due to a $1,205,000 increase in net charge offs on real estate construction — residential properties, a $558,000 increase in real estate mortgage — commercial properties, partially offset by a $697,000 decrease in net charge offs on real estate mortgage — residential properties from March 31, 2010 to March 31, 2011, respectively. The increase in net charge-offs for 2011 was primarily due to charge offs taken on two credits that management had specifically reserved $2,000,000 as of December 31, 2010. Since these two credits were fully reserved as of December 31, 2010, no additional provision for these credits was required during the first quarter of 2011, and as a result, total net charge-offs exceeded the provision for loan losses during the first quarter of 2011. The ratio of annualized total net loan charge-offs to total average loans was 0.44% at March 31, 2011 compared to 1.63% at December 31, 2010.
Nonperforming loans, defined as loans on nonaccrual status, loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing, and restructured loans totaled $50,418,000 or 5.77% of total loans at March 31, 2011 compared to $56,303,000 or 6.27% of total loans at December 31, 2010.

     It is our Company’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income on loans when management believes that the borrower’s financial condition, after consideration of business conditions and collection efforts, is such that the collection of interest is doubtful, or upon which principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more and the asset is not both well secured and in the process of collection. Subsequent interest payments received on such loans are applied to principal if any doubt exists as to the collectibles of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as interest income on a cash basis. Interest on nonaccrual loans, which would have been recorded under the original terms of the loans, was approximately $606,000 and $507,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Approximately $100 and $13,000 was actually recorded as interest income on such loans for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
     Total non-accrual loans at March 31, 2011 decreased $3,063,000 from December 31, 2010. The decrease resulted mainly from a decrease of $1,646,000 and $1,035,000, respectively, in real estate construction — residential and in real estate mortgage — residential non-accrual loans. During the first quarter of 2011 our Company charged off three significant loan relationships and is continuing to see an increase in foreclosures.
     Loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest increased $357,000 from December 31, 2010 to March 31, 2011. Foreclosed real estate and other repossessions increased $1,417,000 to $15,426,000 from December 31, 2010 to March 31, 2011.

     The increase in the levels of charge offs has contributed to the decrease in the ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans from 25.87% at December 31, 2010 to 24.60% at March 31, 2011. As mentioned previously, management charged off approximately, $2,000,000 of loans during the first quarter that were fully reserved as of December 31, 2010. As a result, the allowance for loan losses to loans outstanding declined from 1.62% at December 31, 2010 to 1.42% at March 31, 2011.
     At March 31, 2011, loans classified as troubled debt restructurings (TDR) totaled $19,799,000, of which $17,295,000 was on non-accrual status and $2,504,000 was on accrual status. At December 31, 2010, loans classified as TDR totaled $22,080,000, of which $16,397,000 was on non-accrual status and $5,683,000 was on accrual status. Our Company has experienced an increase in its loan delinquencies much like the rest of the banking industry as current economic conditions negatively impact our borrowers’ ability to keep their debt payments current.

     The allowance for loan losses is available to absorb probable loan losses regardless of the category of loan to be charged off. The allowance for loan losses consists of asset-specific reserves, and reserves based on expected loss estimates.
     The asset-specific component applies to loans evaluated individually for impairment and is based on management’s best estimate of proceeds from liquidating collateral. The majority of our nonperforming loans are secured by real estate collateral. The actual timing and amount of repayments and the ultimate realizable value of the collateral may differ from management’s estimate.
     The expected loss component is determined by applying percentages to pools of loans by asset type. These percentages are determined by using historical loss percentages. These expected loss estimates are sensitive to changes in delinquency status, realizable value of collateral, and other risk factors.
     The unallocated portion of the allowance is based on management’s evaluation of conditions that are not directly reflected in the determination of the asset-specific component and the expected loss component discussed above. The evaluation of inherent loss with respect to these qualitative conditions is subject to a higher degree of uncertainty because they may not be identified with specific problem credits or portfolio segments. Conditions evaluated in connection with the unallocated portion of the allowance include general economic and business conditions affecting our key lending areas, credit quality trends (including trends in substandard loans expected to result from existing conditions), collateral values, specific industry conditions within portfolio segments, bank regulatory examination results, and findings of our internal loan review department.
     Management believes that based on detailed analysis of each credit risk inherent to our loan portfolio and the value of any associated collateral, that the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2011 is sufficient to cover probable losses.
     The underlying assumptions, estimates and assessments used by management to determine these components are continually evaluated and updated to reflect management’s current view of overall economic conditions and relevant factors

impacting credit quality and inherent losses. Changes in such estimates could significantly impact the allowance and provision for credit losses. Our Company could experience credit losses that are different from the current estimates made by management.

     Our Company’s allocation for loan losses decreased $2,163,000 from December 31, 2010 to March 31, 2011. The decline of the allowance for loan losses was primarily seen in the allocation for real estate construction — residential loans and the allocation of commercial, financial, and agricultural loans as they decreased $1,076,000, and $674,000, respectively, resulting from charge offs taken on two loans that were fully reserved for at December 31, 2010. Also contributing to this overall decrease in the allowance was an $804,000 decrease in the real estate mortgage — residential allocation due to a loan that was reserved for at December 31, 2010 was foreclosed on and sold during the first three months of 2011.
The following table is a summary of the general and specific allocations within the allowance for loan losses:

Allocation of allowance for loan losses:

Total
  $ 12,402     $ 14,565  
 
     Management has established procedures that result in specific allowance allocations for any estimated incurred loss. For loans not considered impaired, a general allowance allocation is computed using factors developed over time based on actual loss experience. The specific and general allocations represent management’s best estimate of probable losses contained in the loan portfolio at the evaluation date. Although the allowance for loan losses is comprised of specific and general allocations, the entire allowance is available to absorb any credit losses.
     The asset-specific reserve component of our allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2011 was determined by using fair values of the underlying collateral through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. The expected loss component of our allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2011 was determined by calculating historical loss percentages for various loan categories over the previous eleven quarters. Management determined that the previous eleven quarters were reflective of the loss characteristics of our Company’s loan portfolio during the recent economic downturn. These historical loss percentages were then applied to the various categories of loans to determine an expected loss requirement for the current portfolio. At March 31, 2011, the asset-specific reserve component decreased $2,638,000 due to a comparable decrease in the volume of impaired loans as well as the charge-off of two credits during the first quarter that management had specifically reserved approximately $2,000,000 as of December 31, 2010. During the same period, the general reserve component increased from $8,189,000 at December 31, 2010 to $8,664,000 at March 31, 2011 due to usage of a historical loss experience reflective of our Company’s loss characteristics.
     The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. Once the impairment amount is calculated, a specific reserve allocation is recorded. At March 31, 2011, $3,737,000 of our Company’s allowance for loan losses was allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $50,028,000 compared to $6,376,000 of our Company’s allowance for loan losses allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $56,271,000 at December 31, 2010. Based upon

detailed analysis of all impaired loans, management has determined that $26,297,000, or 53%, of impaired loans require no reserve allocation at March 31, 2011 compared to $26,038,000, or 46%, at December 31, 2010.
     As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 approximately $28,351,000 and $19,239,000, respectively, of loans not included in the nonaccrual table above or identified by management as being impaired were classified by management as potential problem loans having more than normal risk which raised doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply with present loan repayment terms. The $9,112,000 increase in classified loans is the result of several borrowers who have experienced cash flow problems and as well as some deterioration in collateral value. Management believes the general allowance was sufficient to cover the risks and probable losses related to such loans at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
     At March 31, 2011, management determined that $11,654,000 of the $12,402,000 total allowance for loan comprised of the asset-specific and expected loss components and $748,000 was unallocated. This is compared to $13,948,000 of the $14,565,000 total allowance for loan losses allocated to the asset-specific and expected loss components and $617,000 that was unallocated at December 31, 2010. The increase in the portion of the allowance for loan losses related to non asset-specific reserves is the result of management analyzing and assessing this portion of the allowance for loan losses on a detailed level by homogeneous loan categories for loans not considered impaired. Such analysis measured reserve requirements based on historical loss experiences of loans in those individual categories. Such reserve methodology considers the loss experience for certain types of loans and loan grades for the past eleven quarters.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity Management
     The role of liquidity management is to ensure funds are available to meet depositors’ withdrawal and borrowers’ credit demands while at the same time maximizing profitability. This is accomplished by balancing changes in demand for funds with changes in the supply of those funds. Liquidity to meet the demands is provided by maturing assets, short-term liquid assets that can be converted to cash and the ability to attract funds from external sources, principally depositors. Due to the nature of services offered by our Company, management prefers to focus on transaction accounts and full service relationships with customers. Management believes it has the ability to increase deposits at any time by offering rates slightly higher than the market rate.
     Our Company’s Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO), primarily made up of senior management, has direct oversight responsibility for our Company’s liquidity position and profile. A combination of daily, weekly and monthly reports provided to management detail the following: internal liquidity metrics, composition and level of the liquid asset portfolio, timing differences in short-term cash flow obligations, available pricing and market access to the financial markets for capital and exposure to contingent draws on our Company’s liquidity.
     Our Company has a number of sources of funds to meet liquidity needs on a daily basis. Our Company’s most liquid assets are comprised of available for sale investment securities, federal funds sold, and securities purchased under agreements to resell, and excess reserves held at the Federal Reserve as follows:
                 
    March 31,   December 31,
(dollars in thousands)   2011   2010
 
Federal funds sold
  $ 142     $ 126  
Federal Reserve — excess reserves
    19,133       29,286  
Available for sale investments securities
    217,542       178,978  
 
Total
  $ 236,817     $ 208,390  
 
     Federal funds sold and resale agreements normally have overnight maturities and are used for general daily liquidity purposes. The fair value of the available for sale investment portfolio was $217,542,000 at March 31, 2011 and included an unrealized net gain of $1,797,000. The portfolio includes maturities of approximately $15,989,000 over the next twelve months, which offer resources to meet either new loan demand or reductions in our Company’s deposit base.

     Our Company pledges portions of its investment securities portfolio to secure public fund deposits, federal funds purchased lines, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank, and for other purposes as required or permitted by law.
At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, total investment securities pledged for these purposes were as follows:
                 
    March 31,   December 31,
(dollars in thousands)   2011   2010

     At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our Company’s unpledged securities in the available for sale portfolio totaled approximately $60,150,000 and $30,879,000, respectively.
     Liquidity is also available from our Company’s base of core customer deposits, defined as demand, interest, checking, savings, and money market deposit accounts. At March 31, 2011, such deposits totaled $543,521,000 and represented 56.3% of our Company’s total deposits. These core deposits are normally less volatile and are often tied to other products of our Company through long lasting relationships. Time deposits and certificates of deposit of $100,000 and over totaled $422,504,000 at March 31, 2011. These accounts are normally considered more volatile and higher costing representing 43.7% of total deposits at March 31, 2011.

     Federal funds purchased are overnight borrowings obtained mainly from upstream correspondent banks with which our Company maintains approved credit lines. As of March 31, 2011, under agreements with these unaffiliated banks, the Bank may borrow up to $15,200,000 in federal funds on an unsecured basis and $7,600,000 on a secured basis. There were no federal funds purchased outstanding at March 31, 2011. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are generally borrowed overnight and are secured by a portion of our Company’s investment portfolio. At March 31, 2011 there was $29,046,000 in repurchase agreements. Our Company may periodically borrow additional short-term funds from the Federal Reserve Bank through the discount window; although no such borrowings were outstanding at the year end. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB). As a member of the FHLB, the Bank has access to credit products of the FHLB. As of March 31, 2011, the Bank had $51,821,000 in outstanding borrowings with the FHLB. In addition, our Company has $49,486,000 in outstanding subordinated notes issued to wholly-owned grantor trusts, funded by preferred securities issued by the trusts.

Sources and Uses of Funds
     As our Company sees loan demand decline and overnight borrowing rates remain at historic lows, management has expanded the investment portfolio to keep excess cash minimized. A deposit reclassification program was implemented in January of 2011 that lowered the Federal Reserve account requirement, improving liquidity, and enabling our Company to lower cash balances maintained at the Federal Reserve and invest in higher yielding securities.
     Cash and cash equivalents were $38,029,000 at March 31, 2011 compared to $50,980,000 at December 31, 2010. The $12,951,000 decrease resulted from changes in the various cash flows produced by operating, investing, and financing activities of our Company, as shown in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Cash flow provided from operating activities consists mainly of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items. Operating activities provided cash flow of $4,278,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011.
     Investing activities consisting mainly of purchases, sales and maturities of available for sale securities, and changes in the level of the loan portfolio, used total cash of $19,803,000. The cash outflow primarily consisted of $58,387,000 of purchases of investment securities, partially offset by a $16,102,000 decrease in the loan portfolio, $19,707,000 in proceeds from maturities, calls, and pay-downs of investment securities, and $2,564,000 in proceeds from sales of other real estate owned and repossessions.
     Financing activities provided cash flow of $2,574,000, resulting primarily from a net $26,634,000 increase in demand deposits and interest-bearing transaction accounts, partially offset by $15,164,000 of repayments of FHLB advances, a decrease of $1,023,000 of federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and a $7,271,000 decrease in time deposits. Future short-term liquidity needs arising from daily operations are not expected to vary significantly during 2011.
     In the normal course of business, our Company enters into certain forms of off-balance sheet transactions, including unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit. These transactions are managed through our Company’s various risk management processes. Management considers both on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet transactions in its evaluation of our Company’s liquidity. In the section entitled, Commitments, Contractual Obligations, and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, below we disclose that our Company had $97,885,000 in unused loan commitments and standby letters of credit as of March 31, 2011. While this commitment level would be difficult to fund given our Company’s current liquidity resources, we know that the nature of these commitments are such that the likelihood of such a funding demand is very low.
     Our Company is a legal entity, separate and distinct from the Bank, which must provide its own liquidity to meet its operating needs. Our Company’s ongoing liquidity needs primarily include funding its operating expenses and paying cash dividends to its common and preferred shareholders. During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, our Company paid cash dividends to its common and preferred shareholders totaling $602,000 and $851,000. A large portion of our Company’s liquidity is obtained from the Bank in the form of dividends. For the first three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, the Bank did not declare or pay dividends. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $11,890,000 and $12,449,000, respectively.

Capital Management
     Our Company and our Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines, our Company and our Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification of our Company and our Bank are subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors.
     Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy require our Company and our Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier I capital to adjusted-average assets. Management believes, as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our Company and our Bank each met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Sensitivity
     Market risk arises from exposure to changes in interest rates and other relevant market rate or price risk. Our Company faces market risk in the form of interest rate risk through transactions other than trading activities. Our Company uses financial modeling techniques to measure interest rate risk. These techniques measure the sensitivity of future earnings due to changing interest rate environments. Guidelines established by our Company’s Asset/Liability Committee and approved by the Board of Directors are used to monitor exposure of earnings at risk. General interest rate movements are used to develop sensitivity as our Company feels it has no primary exposure to specific points on the yield curve. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 our Company utilized a 300 basis point immediate and gradual move in interest rates (both upward and downward) applied to both a parallel and proportional yield curve.

Effects of Inflation
     The effects of inflation on financial institutions are different from the effects on other commercial enterprises since financial institutions make few significant capital or inventory expenditures which are directly affected by changing prices. Because bank assets and liabilities are virtually all monetary in nature, inflation does not affect a financial institution as much as do changes in interest rates. The general level of inflation does underlie the general level of most interest rates, but interest rates do not increase at the rate of inflation as do prices of goods and services. Rather, interest rates react more to changes in the expected rate of inflation and to changes in monetary and fiscal policy.
     Inflation does have an impact on the growth of total assets in the banking industry, often resulting in a need to increase capital at higher than normal rates to maintain an appropriate capital to asset ratio. In the opinion of management, inflation did not have a significant effect on our Company’s operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
     Our Company’s management has evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive and principal financial officers, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a — 15(e) or 15d — 15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of March 31, 2011. Based upon and as of the date of that evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file and submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required. It should be noted that any system of disclosure controls and procedures, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any system of disclosure controls and procedures is based in part upon assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of any such system, there can be no assurance that any design will always succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
     There has been no change in our Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Impact of New Accounting Standards
     In April 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-02, A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. The provisions of ASU No. 2011-02 provide a creditor additional guidance in determining whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring by concluding that both the following conditions exist (1) a creditor has granted a concession, and (2) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties. A provision in ASU No. 2011-02 also ends the FASB’s deferral of the additional disclosures about troubled debt restructurings as required by ASU No. 2010-20. The provisions of ASU No. 2011-02 will be effective for our Company’s reporting period ending September 30, 2011 and requires retrospective application to all restructurings occurring during 2011 along with additional required disclosures. The adoption of ASU No. 2011-02 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
     In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20 — Receivables (ASC Topic 310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. This ASU requires expanded credit risk disclosures intended to provide investors with greater transparency regarding the allowance for credit losses and the credit quality of financing receivables. Under this ASU, companies are required to provide more information about the credit quality of their financing receivables in the disclosures to financial statements, such as aging information, credit quality indicators, changes in the allowance for credit losses, and the nature and extent of troubled debt restructurings and their effect on the allowance for credit losses. Both new and existing disclosures must be disaggregated by portfolio segment or class based on the level of disaggregation that management uses when assessing its allowance for credit losses and managing its credit exposure. The disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The interim disclosures required by this update are reported in the notes to our Company’s consolidated financial statements.
