Earning asset expansion is centered in commercial loans up $97 million. Runoff in lower yielding overnight liquidity, investments helped fund earning asset growth. Asset and liability yields were slightly higher during the quarter, with asset yields up 8 basis points and liability costs 3 basis point higher. • The NII sensitivity to lower rates declined modestly while the benefit to higher rates remained largely unchanged. Reduced exposure to lower rates is due to $50 million notional of floor purchases and the termination of $50 million of pay fixed swaps. The overall position is closely matched for smaller rate changes of +/- 100 basis points. The bank has modest exposure to larger rate declines and benefits from larger rate increases. • Base-rate is a static balance sheet applying the spot yield curve from the valuation date. • Stable core funding base. Transaction accounts fund 38.4% of assets and other non-maturity deposits fund another 17.6% of assets. Low wholesale funding of just 3.0% of assets. • 37.9% of assets reprice in 1 month and 49.4% reprice in the next 12 months. • Continually evaluating strategies to manage NII through hedging, funding strategies as well as product pricing and structure. Changes in Net Interest Income (Dollars in 000’s) Simulation analyses calculate the change in net interest income over the next twelve months, under immediate parallel shifts in interest rates, based upon a static statement of financial condition, which includes derivative instruments, and does not consider loan fees. 13

The increase is primarily due to an increase in volume of mortgage loans sold that was partially offset by a decrease in profit margins on mortgage loans sold. − $145.4 million in mortgage loan originations in 2Q'26 vs. $147.8 million in 2Q’25 and $130.6 million in 1Q’26. − 2Q'26 mortgage loan servicing includes a $1.8 million ($0.07 per diluted share, after tax) increase in fair value adjustment due to price compared to a decrease of $0.2 million ($0.01 per diluted share, after tax) in the year ago quarter.

Outlook for 2026 Outlook for 2026 *as of January, 2026 • IBCP forecast of approximately 4.5%-5.5% overall loan growth is based on an increase in commercial loans (11%-12%) with mortgage loans (0%-1%) and installment loans declining (5.0%-5.5%). • This growth forecast also assumes a stable Michigan economy. • The forecast assumes 0.25% Fed rate cuts in March and August in the federal funds rate while long-term interest rates increase slightly over year-end 2025 levels. • IBCP forecast of high-single digit (7%-8%) growth is primarily supported by an increase in earning assets and a favorable shift in the earning asset base. Expect the net interest margin (NIM) to increase (0.18% - 0.23%) in 2026 compared to full-year 2025. Primary driver is a decrease in yield on interest bearing liabilities that is partially offset by a decrease in earning asset yield. • Very difficult area to forecast. Future provision levels under CECL will be particularly sensitive to loan growth and mix, projected economic conditions, watch credit levels and loan default volumes. • The allowance as a percentage of total loans was at 1.48% at 12/31/25 • A full year 2026 provision (expense) for credit losses of approximately 0.20%-0.25% of average total portfolio loans would not be unreasonable. 2Q'26 Update • Total portfolio loans increased $105.8 million (9.8% annualized) in 2Q'26 which is above our forecasted range. Commercial loan growth of $92.6 million (16.4% annualized), mortgage loan increase of $12.9 million (3.4% annualized) and installment loan increase of $0.2 million (0.2% annualized). • 2Q'26 net interest income was $3.3 million (7.4%) higher than the prior year quarter which is within the forecasted range. The net interest margin was 3.71% for the current quarter and 3.58% for the prior year quarter and up 0.06% from the linked quarter. • The provision for credit losses was an expense of $2.7 million (0.25% annualized) for the second quarter within the forecasted range.
