ALERUS FINANCIAL CORPORATION REPORTS

SECOND QUARTER 2024 NET INCOME OF $6.2 MILLION

MINNEAPOLIS, MN (July 24, 2024) – Alerus Financial Corporation (Nasdaq: ALRS), or the Company, reported net income of $6.2 million for the second quarter of 2024, or $0.31 per diluted common share, compared to net income of $6.4 million, or $0.32 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2024, and net income of $9.1 million, or $0.45 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2023.

CEO Comments

President and Chief Executive Officer Katie Lorenson said, “We continued to see improvement in our underlying core business during the second quarter of 2024. Overall revenues grew 8% sequentially from the prior quarter as both our spread based and fee based revenues grew at a similar rate. A continued rebound in our net interest margin coupled with strong balance sheet growth in loans and deposits, including noninterest bearing deposits, propelled our spread income higher. Fee based revenues benefitted from an improvement in both asset based and non-market based fees from our wealth and retirement businesses. In addition, operating leverage improved with continued prudent expense management, which drove overall expenses down slightly during the quarter. These strong core underlying trends led to sequential improvement of over 48% in pre-provision net revenue from the prior quarter. Provision expense for the quarter was $4.5 million which was driven by loan growth and moving one previously identified commercial real estate loan to nonperforming. Overall classified asset levels improved during the quarter and credit quality is strong relative to historical standards. Reserve and capital levels remain robust with an allowance of 1.31% to total loans, CET1 ratio of 11.67%, while tangible book value per common share grew more than 8% over the past year.

I want to thank all the Alerus team members for their efforts in driving continuous improvement, their expertise and commitment to our clients, communities and shareholders to make Alerus better every day.”

Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2024 was $24.0 million, a $1.8 million, or 8.0%, increase from the first quarter of 2024. The increase was due to interest income on increased loan balances and higher average cash balances related to the Bank Term Funding Program (“BTFP”) arbitrage trade. The increase was partially offset by an increase in interest expense on deposits, driven by higher average deposit and BTFP borrowing balances and higher deposit rates.

Net interest income increased $1.8 million, or 7.9%, from $22.2 million for the second quarter of 2023. Interest income increased $12.7 million, or 31.4%, from the second quarter of 2023, primarily driven by higher yields on new loans and strong organic loan growth, in addition to interest income on higher cash balances due to the BTFP arbitrage trade. The increase in interest income was partially offset by a $10.9 million, or 60.3%, increase in interest expense, due to both an increase in rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and higher deposit and short-term borrowing balances.

Net interest margin (on a tax-equivalent basis) was 2.39% for the second quarter of 2024, a 9 basis point increase from 2.30% for the first quarter of 2024, and a 13 basis point decrease from 2.52% for the second quarter of 2023. The increase in net interest margin (on a tax-equivalent basis) was mainly attributable to higher yields on loans and strong loan growth, partially offset by the higher cost of funds from continued growth in average interest-bearing deposit balances. Adjusted net interest margin (on a tax-equivalent basis) (non-GAAP), which excludes BTFP borrowings, was 2.57% for the second quarter of 2024, a 13 basis point increase from 2.44% for the first quarter of 2024, and a 5 basis point increase from 2.52% for the second quarter of 2023.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2024 was $27.4 million, a $2.0 million increase from the first quarter of 2024. The quarter over quarter increase was primarily driven by improvement across all fee-based businesses. Mortgage banking saw a $0.9

million increase in revenue with mortgage originations of $109.3 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to originations of $54.1 million in the first quarter of 2024. Retirement and benefit services revenue increased $0.4 million for the second quarter of 2024, a 2.7% increase from first quarter of 2024 results, primarily due to the growth in asset-based revenue. Assets under administration/management in retirement and benefit services increased 2.3% from March 31, 2024, due to improved equity and bond markets. Wealth management revenues increased $0.2 million during the second quarter of 2024, a 4.0% increase from the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to fee schedule increases. Additionally, other noninterest income increased $0.4 million during the second quarter of 2024, a 29.0% increase from the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to client swap fees.

Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2024 was $27.4 million, an increase of $1.6 million, or 6.2%, from the second quarter of 2023. Wealth management revenues increased $0.9 million, or 16.7%, in the second quarter of 2024, as assets under administration/management increased 8.2% during that same period. Other noninterest income increased $0.7 million, or 57.2% in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to client swap fees. Partially offsetting this increase, mortgage revenue decreased $0.4 million, or 12.1%, from $2.9 million in the second quarter of 2023, primarily driven by timing differences related to the mortgage pipeline hedging.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2024 was $38.8 million, a $0.3 million, or 0.7%, decrease from the first quarter of 2024. Employee taxes and benefits expense decreased $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2024, a 17.0% decrease from the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to seasonality. Business services, software and technology expense decreased $0.7 million, or 14.0%, from the first quarter of 2024, primarily driven by reduced core processing and data processing expenses. The decrease in noninterest expense was partially offset by an increase in compensation and professional fees and assessments. Compensation expenses increased $0.9 million, or 4.8%, from the first quarter of 2024, primarily driven by an increase in mortgage incentive compensation. Professional fees and assessments increased $0.4 million, or 19.1%, from the first quarter of 2024, primarily driven by increased merger-related expenses of $0.5 million in connection with the pending acquisition of HMN Financial, Inc.

Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2024 increased $2.4 million, or 6.5%, from $36.4 million in the second quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily driven by compensation expenses and professional fees and assessments. Compensation expenses increased primarily due to increased labor costs. Professional fees and assessments increased primarily due to increased merger-related expenses of $0.6 million in connection with the pending acquisition of HMN Financial, Inc. and an increase in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) assessments.

Financial Condition

Total assets were $4.4 billion as of June 30, 2024, an increase of $450.9 million, or 11.5%, from December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $308.2 million increase in cash and cash equivalents and a $156.2 million increase in loans, partially offset by a decrease of $37.5 million in investment securities. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily driven by the proceeds from BTFP borrowings.

Loans

Total loans were $2.9 billion as of June 30, 2024, an increase of $156.2 million, or 5.7%, from December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by a $78.4 million increase in non-owner occupied commercial real estate (“CRE”) loans, a $37.7 million increase in construction, land and development CRE loans, and a $29.6 million increase in commercial and industrial loans, partially offset by $11.6 million and $6.4 million decreases in residential real estate first lien and construction loans, respectively.

Asset Quality

Total nonperforming assets were $27.6 million as of June 30, 2024, an increase of $18.9 million from December 31, 2023. The increase was driven by one previously identified construction, land and development loan of $21.5 million moving to nonaccrual status.

For the second quarter of 2024, the Company had net charge-offs of $2.5 million, compared to net charge-offs of $58 thousand for the first quarter of 2024 and net recoveries of $403 thousand for the second quarter of 2023. The increase in net charge-offs was driven by a $2.6 million charge-off of one commercial and industrial loan that had an individual reserve of $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2024.

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $4.5 million for the second quarter of 2024, compared to no provision for each of the first quarter of 2024 and the second quarter of 2023. The increase in the provision for credit losses was primarily driven by loan growth, as well as an increased reserve related to the previously identified $21.5 million construction, land and development loan which moved to nonaccrual status during the second quarter of 2024.

The unearned fair value adjustments on the acquired Metro Phoenix Bank loan portfolio were $4.1 million as of June 30, 2024, $5.2 million as of December 31, 2023, and $6.2 million as of June 30, 2023.

Capital

Total stockholders’ equity was $373.2 million as of June 30, 2024, an increase of $4.1 million from December 31, 2023. This change was primarily driven by an increase in retained earnings of $4.9 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Some of the financial measures included in this press release are not measures of financial performance recognized by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures include the ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets, adjusted tangible common equity to tangible assets, tangible book value per common share, return on average tangible common equity, efficiency ratio, pre-provision net revenue, net interest margin (tax-equivalent), and adjusted net interest margin (tax-equivalent). Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of its performance, and believes financial analysts and investors frequently use these measures, and other similar measures, to evaluate capital adequacy and financial performance. Reconciliations of non-GAAP disclosures used in this press release to the comparable GAAP measures are provided in the accompanying tables. Management, banking regulators, many financial analysts and other investors use these measures in conjunction with more traditional bank capital ratios to compare the capital adequacy of banking organizations with significant amounts of goodwill or other intangible assets, which typically stem from the use of the purchase accounting method of accounting for mergers and acquisitions.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for total stockholders’ equity, total assets, book value per share, return on average assets, return on average equity, or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which the Company calculates these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements concerning plans, estimates, calculations, forecasts and projections with respect to the anticipated future performance of Alerus Financial Corporation. These statements are often, but not always, identified by words such as “may”, “might”, “should”, “could”, “predict”, “potential”, “believe”, “expect”, “continue”, “will”, “anticipate”, “seek”, “estimate”, “intend”, “plan”, “projection”, “would”, “annualized”, “target” and “outlook”, or the negative version of those words or other comparable words of a future or forward-looking nature. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements the Company makes regarding our projected growth, anticipated future financial performance, financial condition, credit quality, management’s long-term performance goals and the future plans and prospects of Alerus Financial Corporation.

Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: interest rate risk, including the effects of sustained high interest rates; our ability to successfully manage credit risk and maintain an adequate level of allowance for credit losses; new or revised accounting standards; business and economic conditions generally and in the financial services industry, nationally and within our market areas, including high rates of inflation and possible recession; the effects of recent developments and events in the financial services industry, including the large-scale deposit withdrawals over a short-period of time that resulted in recent bank failures; the overall health of the local and national real estate market; concentrations within our loan portfolio; the level of nonperforming assets on our balance sheet; our ability to implement our organic and acquisition growth strategies, including the integration of Metro Phoenix Bank which the Company acquired in 2022 and the pending acquisition of HMN Financial, Inc.; the impact of economic or market conditions on our fee-based services; our ability to continue to grow our retirement and benefit services business; our ability to continue to originate a sufficient volume of residential mortgages; the occurrence of fraudulent activity, breaches or failures of our or our third party vendors’ information security controls or cybersecurity-related incidents, including as a result of sophisticated attacks using artificial intelligence and similar tools; interruptions involving our information technology and telecommunications systems or third-party servicers; potential losses incurred in connection with mortgage loan repurchases; the composition of our executive management team and our ability to attract and retain key personnel; rapid technological change in the financial services industry; increased competition in the financial services industry from non-banks such as credit unions and Fintech companies, including digital asset service providers; our ability to successfully manage liquidity risk, including our need to access higher cost sources of funds such as fed funds purchased and short-term borrowings; the concentration of large deposits from certain clients, who have balances above current FDIC insurance limits; the effectiveness of our risk management framework; the commencement and outcome of litigation and other legal proceedings and regulatory actions against us or to which the Company may become subject; potential impairment to the goodwill the Company recorded in connection with our past acquisitions, including the acquisition of Metro Phoenix Bank and the pending acquisition of HMN Financial, Inc.; the extensive regulatory framework that applies to us; the impact of recent and future legislative and regulatory changes, including in response to recent bank failures; fluctuations in the values of the securities held in our securities portfolio, including as a result of changes in interest rates; governmental monetary, trade and fiscal policies; risks related to climate change and the negative impact it may have on our customers and their businesses; severe weather, natural disasters, widespread disease or pandemics; acts of war or terrorism, including the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the Russian invasion of Ukraine, or other adverse external events; any material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting; changes to U.S. or state tax laws, regulations and guidance; potential changes in federal policy and at regulatory agencies as a result of the upcoming 2024 presidential election; talent and labor shortages and employee turnover; our success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing items; and any other risks described in the “Risk Factors” sections of the reports filed by Alerus Financial Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

INVESTOR PRESENTATION 2Q 2024 NASDAQ: ALRS

DISCLAIMERS Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements concerning plans, estimates, calculations, forecasts and projections with respect to the anticipated future performance of Alerus Financial Corporation. These statements are often, but not always, identified by words such as “may”, “might”, “should”, “could”, “predict”, “potential”, “believe”, “expect”, “continue”, “will”, “anticipate”, “seek”, “estimate”, “intend”, “plan”, “projection”, “would”, “annualized”, “target” and “outlook”, or the negative version of those words or other comparable words of a future or forward-looking nature. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements we make regarding our projected growth, anticipated future financial performance, financial condition, credit quality, management’s long-term performance goals and the future plans and prospects of Alerus Financial Corporation. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: interest rate risk, including the effects of sustained high interest rates; our ability to successfully manage credit risk and maintain an adequate level of allowance for credit losses; new or revised accounting standards; business and economic conditions generally and in the financial services industry, nationally and within our market areas, including high rates of inflation and possible recession; the effects of recent developments and events in the financial services industry, including the large-scale deposit withdrawals over a short-period of time that resulted in recent bank failures; the overall health of the local and national real estate market; concentrations within our loan portfolio; the level of nonperforming assets on our balance sheet; our ability to implement our organic and acquisition growth strategies, including the integration of Metro Phoenix Bank which we acquired in 2022 and the pending acquisition of HMN Financial, Inc.; the impact of economic or market conditions on our fee-based services; our ability to continue to grow our retirement and benefit services business; our ability to continue to originate a sufficient volume of residential mortgages; the occurrence of fraudulent activity, breaches or failures of our or our third-party vendors’ information security controls or cybersecurity-related incidents, including as a result of sophisticated attacks using artificial intelligence and similar tools; interruptions involving our information technology and telecommunications systems or third-party servicers; potential losses incurred in connection with mortgage loan repurchases; the composition of our executive management team and our ability to attract and retain key personnel; rapid technological change in the financial services industry; increased competition in the financial services industry from non-banks such as credit unions and Fintech companies, including digital asset service providers; our ability to successfully manage liquidity risk, including our need to access higher cost sources of funds such as fed funds purchased and short-term borrowings; the concentration of large deposits from certain clients, who have balances above current Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits; the effectiveness of our risk management framework; the commencement and outcome of litigation and other legal proceedings and regulatory actions against us or to which we may become subject; potential impairment to the goodwill we recorded in connection with our past acquisitions, including the acquisition of Metro Phoenix Bank and the pending acquisition of HMN Financial, Inc.; the extensive regulatory framework that applies to us; the impact of recent and future legislative and regulatory changes, including in response to the recent bank failures; fluctuations in the values of the securities held in our securities portfolio, including as a result of changes in interest rates; governmental monetary, trade and fiscal policies; risks related to climate change and the negative impact it may have on our customers and their businesses; severe weather, natural disasters, widespread disease or pandemics; acts of war or terrorism, including the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the Russian invasion of Ukraine, or other adverse external events; any material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting; changes to U.S. or state tax laws, regulations and guidance; potential changes in federal policy and at regulatory agencies as a result of the upcoming 2024 presidential election; talent and labor shortages and employee turnover; our success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing items; and any other risks described in the “Risk Factors” sections of the reports filed by Alerus Financial Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this presentation is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation includes certain ratios and amounts that do not conform to U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP. Management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate financial performance and business trends from period to period and believes that disclosure of these non-GAAP financial measures will help investors, rating agencies and analysts evaluate the financial performance and condition of Alerus Financial Corporation. This presentation includes a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable GAAP equivalent. Miscellaneous Except as otherwise indicated, this presentation speaks as of the date hereof. The delivery of this presentation shall not, under any circumstances, create any implication that there has been no change in the affairs of Alerus Financial Corporation after the date hereof.
