Letter to Shareholders
Lake City Bank Shareholders, Clients and 
Community Partners:
2024 was a great year for the Lake City Bank team. Our 
foundational building blocks were strengthened during the 
year and we are excited to move the business forward in 
2025. At our core, we are a true community bank dedicated 
to the communities we serve. On pages 16 and 17 of this 
annual report, you will learn about our extensive involvement 
in two organizations that are important to our Indiana 
communities, Habitat for Humanity and Junior Achievement. 
Volunteerism is a way of life at Lake City Bank. 
We encourage our team members to find an organization that 
is important to them in their communities and get involved. 
For some, such as Vice President Jana Miller, pictured on 
page 17, it’s a passion that has led to more than two decades 
of commitment. Over the last 23 years, Jana has dedicated 
thousands of hours to Junior Achievement. She loves her 
community, cares for it deeply and her service to Junior 
Achievement has created a lifetime of memories for her 
and the youth that she has served. Jana’s story repeats 
itself throughout our workforce every day and in every 
market. We truly care about our communities and are very 
proud of the impact Lake City Bank team members have 
in all 15 Indiana Counties we serve.  
The bank was founded in Kosciusko County in 1872 and 
has been headquartered in Warsaw for our entire 153-
year history. Our roots run deep in our hometown, and 
we are proud to be the largest employer in Downtown 
Warsaw with over 271 team members working here every 
day. Today, we have a 67% market share of all Kosciusko 
County deposits. That’s exceptional and we are very 
happy to take care of our hometown clients and friends. 
During 2024, we purchased a nearly 60-year-old 36,000 
square foot three-story building in Downtown Warsaw that 
will be transformed into our Innovation and Technology 
Center. It’s a physical commitment to ensuring that we 
remain focused on delivering leading edge technology-
driven financial services to our clients. It’s also part of the 
foundational building blocks we strengthened in 2024. Our 
primary competition are large regional and national banks 
and we must constantly innovate to remain competitive 
with them. 
What else defines a true community bank? As a lender, 
it means extending credit relationships to the diverse 
industries and companies that drive the economies of 
our Indiana communities. In the pages that follow, you’ll 
read about our relationships with five of our clients, whose 
relationships span the last 35 years. At Lake City Bank, 
we are very proud of the fact that we don’t run hot and 
cold as a lender. When the recreational vehicle industry 
experienced challenges during the great recession, many 
banks redlined the industry and kicked their RV clients 
to the curb. Lake City Bank kept its balance sheet open 
to our industry clients in the RV Capital of the World in 
Elkhart, Indiana. We’ve never redlined any industry and 
simply want to lend money to people and businesses 
with strong character and a commitment to their banking 
relationship with us. We’re a relationship driven bank 
and are passionate about bringing our commitment to 
community banking to our client relationships. 
Every year, we develop a comprehensive list of Strategic 
Initiatives that will further strengthen our foundational

building blocks for the future. We are an execution 
focused organization and throughout the year, our Project 
Management, Application Management and Technology 
Services teams come together with partners from across 
the bank to synergistically move these initiatives forward. 
Several years ago, we recognized that we were not 
consistently completing these initiatives on their original 
timelines. While we had the people and skillsets to get them 
done, our process architecture was flawed because we were 
trying to do too much. What did we do? We came together 
and rebuilt our process to clearly identify strategic priorities 
and to smooth out the wrinkles to ensure that every 
involved team member was rowing in the same direction 
with the right cadence. In 2025, these initiatives will deliver 
revenue growth and enhancement opportunities, establish 
long-term planning objectives and identify administrational 
and organizational initiatives to keep the innovation train 
moving forward. Partners will come together, work together 
and remain committed to these important building blocks 
for our future. 
We remain focused on creating long-term shareholder 
value at Lake City Bank. While effectively managing the 
operational and administrative costs of the business 
is a critical part of our success, the real driver of 
shareholder value creation is revenue growth. The 
key driver of revenue growth starts with balance 
sheet growth. Making loans and funding them with 
core deposits in our Northern and Central Indiana 
communities is the simple recipe that we have 
followed for 153 years. Since 1990, we’ve experienced 
consistent and exceptional growth in our business. 
We have grown loans and deposits at 10% compound 
annual growth rates. We’ve grown net income and 
diluted earnings per share at 11% compound annual 
growth rates over the same time period. Have we taken 
care of shareholders? Since 2000, our shareholders 
have experienced a total return of 2,974%. 
This is an annual report to shareholders, but it’s much 
more than that to the Lake City Bank team. It’s a 
reaffirmation of our dedication to our long history of 
community banking. While our strong capital structure 
is considered the financial foundation of the bank, 
that’s not what this annual report focuses on. This 
annual report features the human capital of the Lake 
City Bank team that has produced consistent, stable 
and strong results over the last 153 years. We love 
talking about our client relationships and the people 
who manage them. We love being long-term financial 
partners with our clients and our communities. And we 
love community banking. 
Kristin L. Pruitt

Management Committee
Our Management Committee averages 13 years of 
experience at Lake City Bank and 30 years of total 
experience. We come from different geographic 
locations in our Indiana footprint every Monday 
morning to start our week together in our Warsaw, 
Indiana headquarters. We could do it virtually, but 
that would be no fun. Every Monday morning, we 
discuss our respective weeks, compare notes 
on ongoing projects and initiatives and business 
conditions, and simply enjoy each other’s company 
along with some friendly banter. We are an 
organization with great pride in our culture. Building 
and strengthening our relationships with each other 
is a great way to start every week.

NEW PARIS | CLIENT SINCE 1990

Turtle Top is a family business, first and foremost, 
and in many ways that extends to its employees 
and partners. Founded in the mid-1920s in Goshen 
as the Cripe Lightning Rod Company, Independent 
Protection Company remains a leading manufacturer 
of lightning protection for industrial, residential and 
historical buildings and trees. In 1962, the company’s 
Turtle Top division in New Paris introduced its first 
cargo van conversion. The company recognized 
the potential for passenger vans in the travel and 
recreational market. Today, Turtle Top manufactures 
small to mid-sized buses built on Chevrolet, Ford 
and Freightliner chassis. It continues to develop 
new models, with quality and service remaining 
paramount.
“We try to treat everybody like we would want to be 
treated,” Rob Cripe, President & CEO said. “Are we

interested in selling buses? Absolutely. But if you buy one 
of our buses and you’re not happy with it we’re going to 
stand behind it in the field. Our competitive advantage is 
our commitment to quality and relationships.”
As a fifth-generation family business, Turtle Top 
recognizes that building relationships contributes to its 
success. The company has loan and deposit products 
with Lake City Bank and leverages the bank’s technology-
driven treasury management products. Most importantly, 
their family orientation extends to the team of bankers 
they work with.
“It’s been very easy to do business with Lake City Bank,” 
Cripe said. “The bank has always been there for anything 
we’ve needed. We talk to Gavin (Miller) about what we’re 
wanting to do, and he comes back with two or three 
options. They feel like part of the family.”

Freeland Group Restaurants

The bankers 
we deal with 
are just all 
top-notch 
people.

Managing Partner; Reena McKee, Controller; Marshall Weadick, First Vice President, Regional Credit Officer; Cammy Treadway, 
Senior Vice President, Commercial East Regional Manager; Nathan Burnell, Vice President, Commercial Banking Officer.
What started as a part-time job for Dick Freeland, founder 
of Freeland Group Restaurants, grew into a restaurant 
group encompassing nearly 90 restaurants and counting 
in four states. The company has grown significantly since 
opening its first Pizza Hut franchise in Fort Wayne in 1972, 
recently purchasing 35 Pizza Hut restaurants in Wisconsin 
and Illinois while embarking on a new venture with Dave’s 
Hot Chicken. With all that growth, the company remains 
committed to its culture of supporting communities 
and love of the restaurant business. While Dick 
Freeland passed away in 2013, his vision of community 
engagement continues today.
“Dick felt it was really important not only for him and the 
company leaders to be involved with the community but 
also for our teams,” said Todd Hollman, CEO & COO. “We 
all are involved with different nonprofits and encourage 
our teams to spend time with nonprofits, to serve those 
around them.”
Culture has made Freeland Group Restaurants’ 
relationship with Lake City Bank a natural fit. The 
company uses loan and deposit products, technology-driven 
treasury management solutions, and personal accounts 
with the bank’s Wealth Advisory Group and Private Banking 
services.
“The bankers we deal with are just all top-notch people,” 
Hollman said. “If we have questions, they answer them. They 
helped us figure out how to organize our depository accounts 
into our main accounts and did a phenomenal job helping 
our accounting team redo our internal banking infrastructure, 
adding a lot of automation. It’s a lot smoother.”
While relatively new, the partnership between the bank and 
Freeland Group Restaurants is built on a strong foundation 
and shared values. 
“There’s something about the Lake City Bank culture where 
everyone you engage with is easy to talk to,” said Tyler 
Freeland, Managing Partner. “They have a way of articulating 
complex topics well for people on our team, who we 
bring into meetings so that they can learn. We’ve always 
appreciated that.”

Modineer Group is a state-of-the-art metal fabricator 
serving multiple industries by manufacturing high- 
or low-volume custom parts from quality steel, 
aluminum and stainless. Capabilities include roll 
forming, metal machining, fabrication, welding and 
more. The company leads by concentrating on high-
quality production that meets and exceeds customer 
specifications and deadlines. 
“Our team works closely with all our customers,” 
said Edward Hamilton, Chief Executive Officer. “We 
have a very hands-on leadership team that allows 
us to keep a sharp focus on quality, delivering 
premium components every time, and exceeding 
expectations.”
Serving the automotive, military and defense, 
and commercial markets for more than 70 years, 
Modineer has grown organically and by acquisition, 
expanding to nine production facilities to accommodate 
customer demand. With that growth the company remains 
nimble to pivot quickly based on industry changes.
The Modineer Group leadership team cites a strong 
partnership with Lake City Bank as contributing to its 
success. The company uses loan and deposit products, 
along with technology-driven treasury management 
solutions. 
“The local relationship with Lake City Bank means a lot to 
our team,” said Scott Mereness, Chairman. “The bankers 
we work with invest the time to get to know our team 
members, our leadership team and what we’re about as a 
company. That fosters mutual trust and respect between 
us and the bank.”

Lake City

a company 
like ours.

Commercial Banking Officer; Allan Browning, President; Melanie McIntyre, Vice President, Corporate & Institutional Services 
Sales Officer; Angie Doty, Vice President, Retail Banking Officer.
Browning Chapman is a specialty contractor firm that 
delivers a wide array of construction services across the 
country in public and private sectors. The services they offer 
are as varied as the markets they serve. The firm regularly 
performs structural concrete repairs, masonry restoration, 
resinous and traffic coatings, application of joint sealants 
and waterproofing, concrete leveling and polishing, sports 
flooring installation, and parking garage restoration and 
maintenance.
Founded in 2012 by industry veterans Allan Browning and 
Gordon Chapman, the company sets itself apart by focusing 
on the values of quality, integrity and loyalty in all of their 
work to consistently deliver superior product while building 
trusted relationships with both clients and field partners. 
“When we started our business, we decided to concentrate 
on the specialty work rather than general construction 
because we saw great opportunity in that area,” said Allan 
Browning, President. “That strategy has been advantageous 
for us and we’ve forged great relationships with many 
clients across the country.”
Browning Chapman now operates out of offices in Indiana, 
Ohio, Florida and Texas, giving them flexibility to quickly route 
teams to projects that span numerous markets including 
industrial, commercial, education, healthcare, athletics and 
hospitality. You can see their quality of work with prominent 
long-term clients across the state of Indiana including Eli Lilly, 
Cummins, University of Notre Dame and the Indianapolis 
International Airport – just to name a few.
These client relationships, built on proven trust and consistent 
excellence, are vital to Browning Chapman’s success and they 
seek the same values for their banking needs. They utilize Lake 
City Bank’s loan and deposit products, digital banking and 
technology-driven treasury management products, as well as 
personal banking accounts, but ultimately the shared values 
matter most.
“Lake City Bank has been the best fit for a company like ours, 
with tailored solutions for the unique challenges we face in 
the construction industry. The time they spend working to 
understand who we are and how we operate has made all the 
difference. It’s clear that they value relationships and loyalty as 
much as we do,” said Browning.

Mudd, Assistant Vice President, Corporate & Institutional Services Sales Officer.
Wildman Business Group has been growing since 1952. 
Their story starts with Rex Wildman, a World War II veteran 
and entrepreneur at heart, when he bought a dry cleaning 
business in Nappanee, Indiana which he later moved to 
Warsaw. The business thrived, expanding into the industrial 
uniform industry and had an opportunity to acquire a local 
competitor in 1998. Brent Wildman, Rex’s son, worked with 
Lake City Bank to obtain a loan for the acquisition, doubling 
the company’s size. The rest, as they say, is history. 
Today, Wildman’s nearly 500 employees offer uniform rental, 
restroom supply service, floor mat supply and cleaning, 
deep cleaning services, and first aid supply service from 
eight locations in Indiana and Michigan. Wildman is now the 
nation’s third largest family-owned laundry service provider 
with an industrial focus. In addition to industrial laundry 
services throughout Indiana and Michigan, Wildman also 
has a national presence through YouTheFan which designs 
and manufactures licensed consumer products, as well as 
Winona Services and Provision First Aid which provide other 
laundries with sales and marketing support and supply 
janitorial and first aid products. 
Despite their exponential growth, the business remains built 
on its humble principles of trust and first-name relationships. 
The Wildman team invests the time to get to know their 
customers, enabling them to propose solutions and pricing 
that work well every time. 
“Just like Lake City Bank, we’re in the relationship business. 
When we do business, it’s as a trusted partner. That means 
we can drive higher value while offering more products 
and services to fulfill the needs of our clients,” said Josh 
Wildman, Chief Executive Officer. 
Lake City Bank’s partnership with Wildman has grown too. In 
addition to loan and deposit products with Lake City Bank, 
Wildman leverages the bank’s technology-driven treasury 
management solutions.
“Similar to our story, Lake City Bank has grown and we 
continue to have easy access to the team of bankers we 
work with,” said Wildman. “Everyone at the bank is easy to 
work with and just a phone call away, and we truly appreciate 
that partnership.”

From its start in 1872, giving back has come naturally to Lake City Bank. Employees across the bank’s footprint 
take its core values of Stewardship and Community Service seriously. The work employees do as volunteers is 
deeply personal and rooted in a commitment to the communities where they live and work. 
The bank’s 670 employees volunteered a total of 4,040 hours with organizations they care about in 2024.

Habitat for Humanity of Kosciusko County
Habitat for Humanity of Kosciusko County is a great 
example of an organization that bank employees support 
enthusiastically, helping build homes for local families in 
Kosciusko County. 
Habitat for Humanity is part of the international organization 
founded in 1976 dedicated to building strength, stability and 
self-reliance in partnership with people and families that need 
an affordable home. Habitat homeowners help build their own 
homes alongside volunteers and pay an affordable mortgage. 
Volunteers work on each home the organization builds, with a 
typical project needing 1,000 to 1,500 volunteer hours logged 
toward its completion.
“Without volunteers from companies like Lake City Bank, this 
program wouldn’t be possible,” said Ben Logan, Executive 
Director, Habitat for Humanity of Kosciusko County. 
“Volunteers are essential to the community-building process 
because they connect the local area and future homeowner. 
Lake City Bank volunteers help complete the 
Habitat for Humanity of Kosciusko County’s 
project build in Mentone.

Those relationships help set up our homeowners, and

appreciate the value that Lake City Bank team members 
bring to the table.”
In 2024, Lake City Bank employees volunteered 148 hours 
with Habitat for Humanity of Kosciusko County.
Junior Achievement of Northern Indiana
Lake City Bank employees have a long history working with 
Junior Achievement. In fact, many individuals count their 
involvement with Junior Achievement in decades, not years. 
Junior Achievement of Northern Indiana is one of 100 local 
Junior Achievement Areas across the U.S. offering core 
content in work readiness, entrepreneurship and financial 
literacy to young people. Their mission extends beyond 
presenting content. The organization works to inspire and 
prepare young people to succeed in our evolving economy, 
own their economic success, and prepare for the future. 
That ambitious work takes many hands to deliver. 
“Volunteerism is the heartbeat of Junior Achievement, 
helping our curriculum come alive with real-world 
experiences, sparking curiosity, and encouraging 
students to dream big,” said Lena Yarian, President 
of Junior Achievement of Northern Indiana. “Lake 
City Bank employees make a difference by sharing 
their expertise and serving as role models. They 
empower students with essential skills and strengthen 
community ties, leaving a lasting impact on the next 
generation.”
For the second year in a row, Lake City Bank 
was presented the U.S. President’s Volunteer 
Service Bronze Award in 2024. The bank earned 
this recognition based on 1,385 volunteer hours 
contributed by its employees during the 2022-2023 
school year. Created by the President’s Council on 
Service and Civic Participation, Lake City Bank is one 
of only 69 companies across the U.S. honored with 
the award, including much larger companies such as 
General Motors, Caterpillar and General Electric.
Overall, 170 Lake City Bank employees across the 
bank’s footprint volunteered with Junior Achievement 
in 2024.

Officer, accepts the U.S. President’s Volunteer 
Service Bronze Award from Jack Kosakowski,

Forward Looking Statement 
This document (including information incorporated by reference) contains, and future oral and written statements of the Company and its management may contain, 
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, plans, 
objectives, future performance and business of the Company. Forward-looking statements, which may be based upon beliefs, expectations and assumptions of the 
Company’s management and on information currently available to management, are generally identifiable by the use of words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” 
“plan,” “intend,” “estimate,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should” or other similar expressions. Additionally, all statements in this document, including forward-looking 
statements, speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any statement in light of new information or future events.
A number of factors, many of which are beyond the ability of the Company to control or predict, could cause actual results to differ materially from those in its forward-
looking statements. These factors include, among others, the following: (i) the strength of the local and national economy; (ii) the economic impact of future terrorist attacks 
and threats or acts of war and the response of the United States to any such attacks or threats; (iii) changes in state and federal laws, regulations and governmental 
policies concerning the Company’s general business; (iv) changes in interest rates and prepayment rates of the Company’s assets; (v) increased competition in the financial 
services sector and the inability to attract new customers; (vi) changes in technology and the ability to develop and maintain secure and reliable electronic systems; 
(vii) the loss of key executives or employees; (viii) changes in consumer spending; (ix) unexpected results of acquisitions; (x) unexpected outcomes of existing or new 
litigation involving the Company; and (xi) changes in accounting standards and practices. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking 
statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Additional information concerning the Company and its business, including additional factors 
that could materially affect the Company’s financial results, is included in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
